Educational Partnerships
This comprehensive text helps prepare pre-service and in-service teachers to build and sustain family, school, and community partnerships that are vital to student success. Focusing on grades preK–8, and with a particular emphasis on diverse families and learners, this book helps teachers to overcome barriers, create action plans, and sustain partnerships over time.
Journeys of Charter School Creators
Journeys of Charter School Creators tells of the journeys of ten thriving charter schools throughout the United States and their leaders over the past 20 years. The first seven cases are follow-up stories from the original book published in 2004, Adventures of Charter School Creators: Leading from the Ground Up. The final three cases feature three North Carolina charter schools and their leaders. Each leaders’ narrative reveals amazing journeys with different paths taken, different choices made; however, these leaders were all entrepreneurs with a passion to guide their schools for the long haul toward success with a specific mission and vision to improve educational opportunities and a better future for a specific group of children. Readers will learn, through the firsthand experiences of these charter school leaders, lessons on leading in the challenging charter school world, a rewarding, yet somewhat tumultuous journey of growth and innovation.

I haven't been able to get Kendra off my mind since I met her. She's confident and stubborn, but I think it's all an act. I see the forced smile and fake happiness, it kills me. I want to know the girl behind the mask. I want her in my life, I want to be more than friends.Nick is the first guy to give me a genuine gentle smile. He seems like the forever type of guy, but if there's one thing I've learned, it's never trust anyone. Men will use and abuse you until they don't want you anymore. When you have nothing left to give them, they throw you away like yesterday's garbage. I can't put myself out there and risk my heart. He seems like the perfect guy but I'm not sure if that's enough.

Everything Has Changed
One is trying to remember, the other just can't forget. When sisters, Victoria and Lulu are involved in a devastating car accident, they wake to lives they barely recognise. Victoria's new life is a baffling reality - her 10-year-old children are suddenly teenagers and her loving marriage has grown frosty and fractured. Amnesia has taken five years of her life, and it's unclear if it'll ever come back. Meanwhile Lulu appears to have escaped the crash unscathed, but only she is aware of the memories that plague her, dragging her deeper into the bottle. Seeking refuge in a relationship that doesn't quite fit right, Lulu knows things can't continue as they are. A compelling and heartfelt novel of family, love and finding yourself. Perfect for fans of Isabelle Broom and Cathy Kelly.
