Educators nationwide are faced with the challenge of improving school culture while battling issues such as bullying and lack of student motivation. This book proposes educators and students share ownership of campus change. What if students had the power to influence their school's culture for the better? Profoundly inspired by students' efforts for change on their own campus, Ambrus and Simpson offer collaborative models, practical tools, and firsthand accounts from students, parents, and teachers. Riding Shotgun illustrates what is possible when students are given the tools and support to lead school wide change.
