This important book offers educational leaders a research-informed and practical roadmap for creating schools where students and adults thrive as partners in shaping school culture, climate, and learning. Based on more than 10,000 student voices, the authors reveal what young people believe schools need to do to better serve all students, and show what becomes possible when educators identify challenges, develop solutions, and create change with students rather than for them.

Grounded in student narratives, focus groups, survey data, Youth Participatory Action Research, and inspiring case studies, the book identifies a Top 10 List of Student Priorities for School Improvement and provides practical tools, frameworks, real-world examples, and actionable strategies to turn student perspectives into meaningful action.

A resource for aspiring and practicing educational leaders, this book offers a hopeful vision and a practical path for creating schools with more meaningful learning, stronger relationships, greater belonging, higher achievement, and greater equity. Most importantly, it shows how listening to students and sharing the work of school improvement can create more effective, equitable, and joyful schools for students and educators alike.
