Reviews
"This story of Sumner High School in Kansas City, Kansas is a very welcome addition to the education literature. It provides a solid history lesson on effective schooling for blacks in that city for five generations, more than seventy years. It is rich with comments and assessments from graduates who credit their sound learning base at Sumner for their subsequent successes in higher education, in negotiating the ways in the world, and in the career ladders that they chose. Cognitive mastery was their core; that, coupled with infusions of proper values and attitudes, made Sumner's graduates competent and capable as they moved into adult life. Every Kansas school and library should add this book to their collection. Today's students need to understand the value of education, motivation, and school related connections to their lives and future well being. Kansas should be quite proud of Sumner High School and its graduates. This book helps to fill the void that exists regarding the successful education of blacks in this nation, despite the imposed limitations of legal racial segregation." -- Faustine C. Jones-Wilson, Ed.D., Professor Emerita Howard University , Washington, D.C. "Contemporary educators, policymakers and parents have much to learn from THE SUMNER STORY about school quality, community cohesiveness and--in a word--excellence! Sumner High School was staffed with exceptionally credentialed principals and teachers who possessed superior knowledge about the education and socialization of children and youth. These legendary educators' strategic equations yielded consistent fruit--generations of graduates who had an intellectual competitive edge and a moral compass which enabled them to be professionally successful, independent and proud, and contributing citizens in their communities despite Jim Crow and its vestiges. My parents are graduates of the famed Sumner High School and Dunbar High School (Washington, DC). Growing up I was regaled with stories about Sumner and Dunbar and the lessons my parents learned from their teachers. More than a historical tome, this research volume affirms what can and should be achieved in our nation's schools." -- Leslie T. Fenwick, Ph.D. , Dean, School of Education, Howard University, Washington, D.C "The writers touch on intangible benefits of the Sumner experience, such as the clear and present caring and personal sacrifice of teachers and administrators; the sense of togetherness due to both internal and external prompts felt by the students; and the pride of the whole community in the beauty of the school. They explore carefully the tangible factors impacting the school's prolonged success: the faculty, curricula, co-curricular programs, and evidence of high standards and expectations. Can students be admonished to "BE THE BEST" outside of a segregated setting? Certainly, the Sumner organizing principle, that "Education is serious business--it is imperative!" could be in place in an integrated setting--but would the students of color know they were included? How can the success of Sumner and the other historically segregated schools that are studied, be resurrected for today's students? All who care about the highest quality of public education for today's African American students should thoroughly digest this powerful study of Sumner--and act upon it! -- Ramona H. Edelin, Ph. D., Executive Director, D.C. Public Charter School Association, Washington, D.C.
