The Hardest Questions Aren’t on the Test: Lessons from an Innovative Urban School

The Boston Arts Academy comprises an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse student body, yet 94 percent of its graduates are accepted to college. This remarkable success rate, writes Principal Linda Nathan, is in large part due to asking the right questions and being open to seeking solutions collaboratively with faculty, parents, and the students themselves.

[ 5.0 stars ] "As a career educator and aspiring administrator I was inspired by "The Hardest Questions...". I appreciated Nathan's candor and honesty. I enjoyed hearing some of the "inside stories" which played an important role in shaping some of the critical decisions Nathan and her staff faced. Not only does Nathan take you behind the scenes of these crucial moments, I found it refreshing that she was ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 2.0 stars ] "Linda Nathan clearly has a long record of successful leadership in urban schools, so what struck me most when I picked up "The Hardest Questions" was how poorly written this manifesto really is. The book's often awkward wording and perambulatory paragraphs leave the reader with the strange sensation that s/he is reading a less-than-satisfactory translation of a book originally penned in a fore ..."

[ 5.0 stars ] "As a teacher I am always interested in how schools manage to excite and involve students. Linda Nathan and the staff of The Boston Arts Academy (a very special Boston public school) have figured out a very successful, idiosyncratic, way to create a school which serves the needs of its students, not the needs of bureaucrats who are only fixated on the latest test scores. In my school, South Lake Hi ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "I highly recommend this book. It is written by an administrator who has "been there" and has great advice for teachers AND administrators in schools of ALL size. It is good to be reminded in this age of NCLB that teaching the WHOLE child is important. Test scores will rise and creativity will NOT suffer if teachers are treated as more than "testers" and students are encouraged to be more than sk ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "As an educator who has worked in almost all levels of schooling this book offers insight regarding the serious issues that face education in America. Infusing hope with a critical lens of schooling, The Hardest Questions, inspires while at the same time challenges educators to reflect, rethink and perhaps redefine their understanding of the purpose of school. Certainly, this book will be added to ..." Courtesy by Amazon
