Abstract
In the following paper, I attempt to give a brief description
of politics in the Pittsburgh school system. The paper itself
is divided into three major sections. In the first section,
I trace the development of the system from its beginning in
1835, pointing out, in some instances, how politics influenced
its development. The second section of this paper is devoted to
three case studies of decisions recently made by the decision-makers
within the system, and attempts to isolate the significant
factors involved in each. The third and final section is devoted
to relating my own findings about decision-making in the Pittsburgh
school system with a number of generalizations made by authors
who have studied other urban school systems.
