The second edition of «Schools of Tomorrow,» Schools of Today:
Progressive Education in the 21st Century documents a new collection
of child-centered progressive schools founded in the first half of the
twentieth century and provides histories of some contemporary examples
of progressive practices. Part I discusses six progressive schools
founded in the first part of the twentieth century (City and Country;
Dalton; the Weekday School at Riverside Church; The Laboratory School
at the Institute of Child Study; Alabama State Teachers College
Laboratory High School; and Highlander), tracing them from their
beginnings. Part II examines four more contemporary schools (Central
Park East 1; Central Park East Secondary; Learning Community Charter
School; and KIPP TEAM Academy), showing how progressive practices
gained momentum from the 1960s onward. As a volume in the History of
Schools and Schooling series, this book seeks to look to the past for
what it can teach us today.
