Abstract

These two books tackle the challenging problem of sustaining small high schools in both rural and urban environments. Using a series of case studies, the authors showcase in context the benefits of small high schools that have been suggested in the literature and have been the subject of numerous policy initiatives in recent years. The funding initiative of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is perhaps the most visible of these at the present time
