| Abstract | "We have entitled the fourth book in the series Rural School Turnaround and Reform: It's Hard Work! Overall, the body of scholarly work and research that examines school turnaround and reform in rural areas is slim; as such, this volume can add to the body of work and contribute to new knowledge in a much-needed area. In this volume, we seek chapter contributions that will speak to the challenges, successes, and opportunities to improve low-performing rural schools. Chapters range from conceptual arguments to policy analyses or research findings, as well as some combination of these or other ways to consider the work"-- Provided by publisher. |
