Launched in 1986, Rethinking Schools is a nonprofit publisher working for equity and justice in public schools and the broader society. Major projects include:
Rethinking Schools, an award-winning quarterly magazine, unique
among education publications. Edited by practicing and former
pre-K-through-12 teachers with almost 200 years of combined classroom
experience, it features a wide range of articles portraying some of this
country’s finest social justice teaching. Other articles analyze the
policies that help or hinder public education.
A series of books, providing practical examples of how to integrate
social justice education into social studies, history, language arts and
mathematics. They are used widely by new as well as veteran teachers
and in teacher education programs. Every Rethinking Schools book grows
out of diverse schools and classrooms throughout the country.
