Raffi - You might check out the Haitian experience. It isn't a school turn around - more like a system wide effort. However for examples of OS in Hairy situations, educational and otherwise - those folks go to the top of my list. Also, our friend Michael Pannwitz (where are you Michael?) should have basket full. As I recall most of his early Open Spaces were with schools. He did all of that so long ago that some of his (elementary) school participants are now doing lots of Open Space. What goes around comes around.

I'm sure there are examples in the archives, and will be sure to sift through them. (if the names of particular places, facilitators who held the space for those events that may be in the archives come to mind, do point those out if you can, it'd make the task of searching the archives easier. I have a meeting with a principal tomorrow of a large inner-city school here in San Diego, and it would be great to cite some examples of ost being used for school "change," if he should ask. Of course, I know that one can cite examples until one is blue in the face, but i think offering those examples- if they are requested- does offer some level of reassurance (whatever that means!). thanks much! appreciatively, raffi san diego
