Discover Hit the Drum: An Insider's Account of How the Charter School Idea Became a National Movement (1) by Sarah Tantillo. Start reading today and explore ideas, insights, and experiences that stay with you.

Overview: The first state charter school law was passed in Minnesota in 1991. The idea that teachers, parents, and other community members could launch these independent public schools of choice proceeded to spread rapidly across the country. Within two decades, many charter schools had long waiting lists and parents willing to march on their behalf. By 2017, more than 6,900 charter schools were operating in 44 states plus DC, serving 3.2 million children. In spite of the controversy that often swirls around them, charter schools have dropped strong roots into the field of education. HIT THE DRUM is a page-turning narrative that gives an insider's perspective to explain how this transformation happened. It tells the engaging stories of several dozen unsung heroes and heroines—many of them classroom teachers—who decided to change their lives in order to join this grassroots movement which has dramatically altered the landscape of public education in America. If you are interested in education reform or how social movements grow and spread—or if you want to understand more about why we have the kinds of schools we do and how schools might look in the future—this book is a must-read.TABLE OF CONTENTSINTRODUCTIONPART I: FIRST STEPSChapter 1: Seeing What's Possible: Day One at North Star AcademyChapter 2: A Nation at Risk and Time for ResultsChapter 3: Where Did the Idea of Chartering Come From?Chapter 4: Preparing the Field and Planting the SeedsChapter 5: California and Michigan and the Early ChallengesChapter 6: "All Choice Is Good and More Choice Is Better": Two WarriorsChapter 7: The PioneerChapter 8: "Who's Going to Help People Start These Things?"Chapter 9: "We Had Nothing to Lose"Chapter 10: From Small Schools to Charter Schools in ChicagoChapter 11: How to Make the Most of a Crisis: The DC StoryChapter 12: A Pot of Meatballs Among FriendsChapter 13: Herding Cats, Part IPART II: SCALING UP: QUANTITY VS.

It was just alright. Some parts were interesting, while others were a bit of a slog to get through. Probably won't read it again, but it was an okay way to pass the time.

Not bad, but not my favorite. The pacing was a bit slow and I found myself skimming a few pages. It wasn't terrible, just okay. Just right down the middle.

Took me a few chapters to get into it, but it was worth it. Interesting premise and executed fairly well. Just a few slow chapters here and there. Enjoyable weekend read.

I liked it for the most part. The middle dragged a tiny bit, but the ending totally made up for it. A solid 4 stars from me.

I liked it for the most part. Writing is good, just wish there was a bit more depth in certain parts. Still kept my attention though. Still a good book.
