"Describes the success of the Frederick Douglass Academy, a public school in Harlem created to provide high quality education to underprivileged students. An inspiring autobiography which outlines the leadership principles, or "Monroe Doctrine", of this charismatic and enormously well-respected educator who founded the Frederick Douglass Academy in Harlem. The "Monroe Doctrine" is based on a belief that caring instructors, a disciplined but creative environment, and a refusal to accept mediocrity can transform the lives of inner-city kids. Today the Academy is one of the finest schools in the country, registering the third highest SAT scores in New York City."
"Leadership lessons from inside and outside the classroom."
"Lorraine Monroe, principal of the Frederick Douglass Academy in Harlem, explains the philosophy of the inner-city public school which provides "a quality education comparable to that offered in an elite suburban school."--Jacket."
