Editor's Note

Democratic Engagement That Matters

Earlier this fall, I tuned into an hour-long livestreamed presentation led solely by the superintendent of the large county school system where I reside during which he thoughtfully and engagingly (with a measured dose of humor) laid out the necessity for $2.7 billion to address massive infrastructure needs over the next six years.

The superintendent, Thomas Taylor, was realistic in his call and opened his remarks by saying he considered the subject worthy of a discussion involving the community at large in Montgomery County, Md. I anticipate he will follow through on his pledge to deliver what Derek Gottlieb and Jack Schneider label 鈥渙ngoing institutional openness.鈥�

In this month鈥檚 cover story about reframing public education鈥檚 narrative, co-authors Gottlieb and Schneider detail what they think it will require to take on the crises that threaten to undermine the stability of public education. In its simplest form, what they seek is an equal partnership in educational matters that expands public participation and proactively secures constituent engagement.

Taylor and other superintendents seem to be in full action mode in such pursuit, and as the grandparent of three young girls just beginning their public school careers in Taylor鈥檚 schools, I am hopeful he can preserve everything we treasure most about public schooling.
