The Great Equalizer: Six Strategies to Make Public Education Work in America delves into the bleak reality of leading a district with a school poised for state takeover and a district with growing inequalities and increasing student needs. Learn how collaboration allowed that same district to become a 1:1 school system when K-12 schools were still dealing with technology roadblocks. Discover how public schools can garner philanthropy and foundation support to lead their districts down the road of excellence. Chapter hooks, key takeaways, and guided discussion questions provide a glimpse into the realities of leading public education systems across our nation. By implementing six strategies for success, public education can be innovative and make a difference for all students. Together we can ensure that America’s public education system remains the great equalizer.

Mark D. Benigni, Ed.D. is the award-winning superintendent of the Meriden Public Schools, the school system from which he graduated and his own children attend. Dr. Benigni is recognized as a transformative leader who is leading his district to its highest achievement scores through collaboration and innovation. Barbara A. Haeffner, the director of teaching and innovation, is known for leading digital transformation and creating student-centered learning environments where student voice and choice truly matter. Lois B. Lehman, the coordinator of grants and special projects and a curriculum expert, garners philanthropy and foundation support to create equitable learning environments that challenge and personalize learning for all students.
