* Through theoretical framing and cases written by a range of contributing authors, this book represents a call to action for current and aspiring school and district administrators and engages readers in critical learning and reflection. * Each case includes questions and activities for individual reflection or group engagement. * This volume fills a void in the educational leadership field, specifically as related to courses within principal preparation programs; there is currently no educational leadership book that considers parents and community members of color as fellow educational leaders (as opposed to members of a lopsided partnership ) or youth as contributors to educational leadership. * School-community relationships and partnerships discussions tend to focus on the role of professional PK-12 educators in engaging parents in schools and explore activities such as Back-to-School nights, parent-teacher conferences, and sanctioned parent groups (e.g. Parent-Teacher Association, sports booster clubs. This edited volume pushes leaders to consider collaboration beyond these sorts of activities and promotes a new vision for educational reform for equity and justice, one in which the leadership of youth, parents, and community forms the bedrock of educational transformation.
