Interweaving vivid portraits of day-to-day school life with clear and evenhanded analysis, Patrick J. McCloskey takes us through an eventful year at Rice High School, as staff, students, and families make heroic efforts to prevail against society's expectations. McCloskey's riveting narrative brings into sharp relief an urgent public policy question: whether (and how) to save these schools that provide the only viable option for thousands of poor and working-class students-and thus fulfill a crucial public mandate. Just as significantly, The Street Stops Here offers invaluable lessons for low-performing urban public schools. 606 $aCatholic high schools$zNew York (State)$zNew York 606 $aAfrican Americans$xEducation (Secondary)$zNew York (State)$zNew York 606 $aMinorities$xEducation (Secondary)$zNew York (State)$zNew York 607 $aHarlem (New York, N.Y.) 615 0$aCatholic high schools 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xEducation (Secondary) 615 0$aMinorities$xEducation (Secondary) 676 $a371.071/27471 700 $aMcCloskey$b Patrick$01896350 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968063103321 996 $aThe street stops here$94550911 997 $aUNINA
