If Teachers Were Free (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781022246997)

In this provocative book, Richard Renfield argues that the crisis in education is not caused by a lack of funding or resources, but rather by a fundamentally flawed system that undervalues teachers and overemphasizes standardized testing. Renfield lays out a bold vision for how we can transform our schools by giving teachers more autonomy and support, and by rethinking our approach to assessment and accountability. This is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of education in America.
