Keeping the Promise? examines one of the most complex reforms in education: charter schools. In this wide-ranging and thought-provoking collection of essays published by Rethinking Schools in collaboration with the Center for Community Change, authors including nationally known educators Ted Sizer and Linda Darling-Hammond examine the charter school movement’s founding visions, on-the-ground realities, and untapped potential.

Essays also include interviews with leaders of community-based charter schools, and analyses of charters in places such as Washington, DC, Boston and Ohio ; and an exploration of the charter-takeover of the New Orleans public schools after Hurricane Katrina by the Center's Leigh Dingerson.
