520 $aDr. Hurwitz uses his half-century of experience in the schools to puncture the many balloons floated by "reformers," who know little about how schools should be run and whose alleged reforms would further ruin our faltering schools. In The Last Angry Principal, we have a great human interest story of a compassionate disciplinarian in a time of eroding standards. When after decades of success his policies were repeatedly first endorsed and then reversed by weak superiors, flip-flopping in face of political pressure, he demanded more uniform decision-making, he was dismissed. A measure of his effectiveness may be that local parents barricaded him in his office, setting the stage for a confrontation that made national headlines and coverage on CBS' 60 Minutes program. The Last Angry Principal is a book that you cannot afford to miss, at a time when the "educational crisis" is seen as a top priority, not only on Capitol Hill and by all of the nation's governors, but every presidential candidate as well.
