Abstract

This paper seeks to shed light on a growing conflict that has surfaced between urban communities and teachers' unions: the conflict over a sharing of power in school decision making. The second portion of the article presents a court case and arguments in the Philadelphia complaint by urban residents who are confronting what they perceive is growing teacher union power over educational decision making.
