Reclaiming Public Education by Reclaiming Our Democracy


Reclaiming Public Education by Reclaiming Our Democracy, the latest book by Kettering President David Mathews, considers what citizens and educators alike want from public education and how they might come closer to getting it. It is also about the obstacles that block them, beginning with significant differences in the ways that citizens see problems in the schools and how professional educators and policymakers talk about them. This book offers ideas about the work citizens can do to reverse this trend and improve education.
