This book describes ways that urban districts around the country are becoming smarter. Drawing from dozens of examples, the authors show how districts can build relationships with cultural institutions, businesses, government agencies and nonprofits to support student achievement and offer multiple pathways to education for urban youth. Its five sections focus on the challenges cities face in educating all students to high levels, smart education systems, the community side of the equation, case studies, and a vision of a smart education system.
