520    Turning Points in Middle Schools follows a fictional 
       school (Dewey Middle School) in its transition from a 
       traditional junior high to a middle school. A series of 
       true-to-life stories depicts the fundamental differences 
       between the two kinds of schools and how change comes 
       about. The authors analyze and explore the stresses both 
       staff and students will encounter during the complex 
       transition process. They present a cohesive, realistic 
       portrayal of the successes and the inevitable 
       disappointments involved and offer tips on how to help 
       everyone better handle these changes. You'll examine these
       key issues: developmental characteristics of early 
       adolescents; components of a successful middles school; 
       curricular and instructional practices in middle schools; 
       personal and group dynamics - building relationships; and 
       the change process itself.
