The Northwoods School is a special example
of collaboration: it is a rescued effort. The first attempt at a collaborative
model in this area was not a success, as Principal Jane Morken will
tell you. However, the need was there, and the administration, parents,
and staff came through with what is now a working model of collaborative
early-childhood education.
Deb Suchla was also interviewed, as well
as a parent who is not identified for reasons of privacy.
