Public schools in the US have long operated as sorting machines channeling students to serve the needs of capital and so-called national interests. Ginsberg deconstructs the rhetoric of contemporary test-driven school reform, with a specific emphasis on the concept of 'at risk.' The premise is statistics that identify entire cultures as 'at risk' are powerful stories not simply of low expectations, cultural deprivations, and individual laziness, but of political capital, misused power, and unjustly distributed resources. Ginsberg provides a powerful analysis of how the policies that supposedly promote meritocracy, personal responsibility, and individual achievement also contain strong components of separating, sorting, marginalizing, and punishing students, particularly those from communities considered "at risk" and who refuse to conform to the status quo. Unlike many ideologically similar critics of public schools, Ginsberg presents a hopeful message through case studies of four urban schools that illustrate more meaningful and sustainable ways for students to learn. These schools embrace risk in that they are unafraid of challenging the status quo of teaching and learning by cultivating spaces where students can question how and why certain knowledge is validated, marginalized, or dismissed. Summing Up: Essential., In my mind the risk for students in urban schools is that they are the victims of a cornucopia of policies designed to ensure that their schools are labeled as low-performing and therefore in need of state intervention, making room for the hustlers, profiteers and do-gooders from the beyond to "save" them. Alice Ginsberg reminds us that there are schools fighting against this current, and doing so in ways that demonstrate that schools which start from the premise that city kids can learn and want to learn can accomplish remarkable things., Urban schools can be exciting and successful environments for our most underserved students. Ginsberg describes effective strategies that must be integrated into our schools; these strategies are not about testing, but about believing in the abilities of all students and mentoring them to address complex social issues that they as adults will be responsible for in the future. Our national risk is that so many students are not being engaged in schools; numerous young people feel schools are not relevant or responsive to their lives. School curriculum has become a response to corporate requests rather than to focus on the developmental and academic needs of our students. Children are the most important natural and national resources of our nation. Ginsberg challenges the narrow and limited views of the potentials and abilities of our urban children and their families. , In my mind the risk for students in urban schools is that they are the victims of a cornucopia of policies designed to ensure that their schools are labeled as low-performing and therefore in need of state intervention, making room for the hustlers, profiteers and do-gooders from the beyond to save them.

Alice Ginsberg has provided us with a new way in which to understand the challenges confronting urban schools and clear and refreshing perspective on how they might be addressed.

Synopsis
At a time when American urban public education is under broad attack, and in which America is perceived as a nation at risk that is losing the race to the top, educators and politicians from across the spectrum are promoting increased emphasis on standardized testing, business models of school reform, zero tolerance, no excuses, promoting cultural assimilation, and building a standardized curriculum. Ginsberg argues that in the effort to reduce the achievement gap and mitigate the pejorative label of "at-risk," we are in danger of eliminating risk from education entirely. This is especially the case in urban schools with large numbers of poor and minority students. Ginsberg explores alternative approaches to student achievement at four dynamic Philadelphia public schools. This book provides a grounded, close look at alternative and innovative pedagogies which embrace risk through an emphasis on critical inquiry, cultural diversity, global awareness, project-based learning, collaboration, community partnerships, and student activism. The result? Schools which can nurture a new generation of students who are not only smart and literate but can think help preserve American Democracy while furthering the quest for peace, unity, equity, and social justice., At a time when American urban public education is under broad attack, and in which America is perceived as a nationat risk that is losing the race to the top, educators and politicians from across the spectrum are promoting increased emphasis on standardized testing, business models of school reform, zero tolerance, no excuses, promoting cultural assimilation, and building a standardized curriculum.
