Julie A. Marsh reveals how power, values, organizational climates, and trust played key roles in these two districts achieving vastly different results. In one district, parents, citizens, teachers, and administrators effectively developed and implemented districtwide improvement strategies; in the other, community and district leaders unsuccessfully attempted to improve systemwide accountability through dialogue. The book highlights the inherent tensions of deliberative democracy, competing notions of representation, limitations of current conceptions of educational accountability, and the foundational importance of trust to democracy and education reform. It further provides a framework for improving community-educator collaboration and lessons for policy and practice. 410 0$aSUNY series, school districts. 606 $aEducational change$zCalifornia 606 $aEducation and state$zCalifornia 606 $aCommunity and school$zCalifornia 606 $aDecision making$zCalifornia 615 0$aEducational change 615 0$aEducation and state 615 0$aCommunity and school 615 0$aDecision making 676 $a379.794 700 $aMarsh$b Julie A$01124716 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966643303321 996 $aDemocratic dilemmas$94361765 997 $aUNINA
