Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Ohio State University, 2010.

This dissertation is the result of a year-long ethnographic case study of a nationally ranked high-performance, high- poverty college preparatory public high school in Ohio. As a multi-sited qualitative study, it brings together field work, interviews, and focus groups with historical and policy document analysis. Through a sociocultural analysis of policy as practice it examines how a complex set of federal and district policies are negotiated and re-appropriated by critical schooling actors as material practices aimed at supporting equity and excellence in urban student achievement. At the same time by unraveling the discourses that overburden urban educational identity with notions of disadvantage and risk, it uses an analytics of disruption to unfix urban students from these constructions to resituate them as educational agents on their own terms. This project makes apparent that even after Brown v. Board of Education and the No Child Left Behind Act, race continues to matter in school and hopes that bearing witness to such "difficult knowledge" will bring us closer to meeting our expectations for a more just and democratic education.
