This important book tells the story of how two school districts-one a predominantly White and wealthy suburban community and the other a more diverse and urbanized community-were merged into a single district to work toward a solution for school segregation.  The authors focus on the Morris School District in New Jersey as an exemplar to demonstrate what is possible and how it can be accomplished. They document what makes a district like Morris successful and include lessons learned in each chapter. Along with analyzing the legal and educational policy implications of the nearly 50-year history of the merged district, the authors take a mixed methods approach to deepen our knowledge of effective leadership, community–school relations, and classroom practices in the context of a community committed to genuine integration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eOffers a deep analysis of one of the few districts that is making progress toward true integration. \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eExamines a local story that has wide applicability to those interested in social justice, enlightened leadership, and equitable educational opportunities for all students.   \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eEmploys qualitative and quantitative research along with GIS mapping to study the legal, educational, political, historical, and sociological dimensions of the case study.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eProvides a series of lessons learned from the Morris School District that will assist those engaged in building equitable school systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgments \u003cbr\u003evii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1. \u003cbr\u003eIntroducing the Morris Story \u003cbr\u003e1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A Note About Terminology \u003cbr\u003e2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Morris School District in New Jersey as an Important Case Study \u003cbr\u003e5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Merger Process and Its Aftermath \u003cbr\u003e11 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Morris School District of Today—\u003cbr\u003eAlmost 50 Years After Merger \u003cbr\u003e12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMSD'\u003cbr\u003es Current Level of Integration as Compared to the State and National Picture \u003cbr\u003e16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy a Book about the Morris School District? \u003cbr\u003e20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverview of the Book \u003cbr\u003e22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2. \u003cbr\u003eUsing Law and Litigation to Advance School Integration \u003cbr\u003e25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Why Litigate to Achieve School Desegregation and Integration? \u003cbr\u003e29\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eJenkins\u003c\/em\u003e Decision \u003cbr\u003e32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalyzing \u003cem\u003eJenkins\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cbr\u003e40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Impact of the \u003cem\u003eJenkins\u003c\/em\u003e Decision \u003cbr\u003e44\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLessons Learned \u003cbr\u003e47\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3. \u003cbr\u003eThe Role of Educational Leadership \u003cbr\u003e50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Link Between Mackey Pendergrast and Steve Wiley \u003cbr\u003e52\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCulturally Responsive School Leadership \u003cbr\u003e55\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Postmerger Period \u003cbr\u003e58\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintaining a Delicate Balance of Diversity: \"I Had to Walk a Fine Line with How We Promoted the District\" \u003cbr\u003e70\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuccesses and Challenges of School Diversity \u003cbr\u003e77\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLessons Learned \u003cbr\u003e85\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4. \u003cbr\u003eThe Black Student Experience in MSD \u003cbr\u003e90\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Changing Demographics and the Substantial Loss of Black Students Over Time \u003cbr\u003e97\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Parents Who Leave \u003cbr\u003e104\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Parents Who Stay: \"We'\u003cbr\u003eve Got to Work Harder\" to Advocate for Our Children \u003cbr\u003e109\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe District'\u003cbr\u003es Response Then: \"Good Intentions\" but \"It Never Felt Like Priority #1\" \u003cbr\u003e122\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe District'\u003cbr\u003es Response Now: Equity and Inclusion \u003cbr\u003e124\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLessons Learned \u003cbr\u003e127\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5. \u003cbr\u003eThe Latinx Student Experience in MSD \u003cbr\u003e129\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Federal\/State\/Local Policy Landscape of Bilingual Education \u003cbr\u003e130\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmergent Bilingual Students in MSD \u003cbr\u003e136\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParental Involvement \u003cbr\u003e143\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeachers and Support Staff \u003cbr\u003e147\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchool Leaders \u003cbr\u003e153\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLessons Learned \u003cbr\u003e154\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConclusion: Moving from Desegregation to True Integration \u003cbr\u003e156\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e What Have We Learned in MSD? \u003cbr\u003e159\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow Should MSD Apply What Was Learned?
