Stanford Center for Social Innovation Review is a Goldmine of Information for Nonprofits and Social Change

If you don't know about the Stanford Center for Social Innovation Review, then check them out. The subscription is well worth it, and I continually find articles that I find useful and enjoy sharing with others. For example: "What Business Execs Don’t Know—but Should—About Nonprofits"

Bridgespan offers "Cases for Courses: Resources for Teaching Nonprofit Management and Strategy"

There are some great case studies on The Bridgespan Group website. I noticed this one that features Aspire Public Schools, a remarkable organization that is achieving exceptional educational outcomes: http://www.bridgespan.org/WorkArea/linkit.aspx?LinkIdentifier=id&ItemID=2962. The article addresses some of the issues they faced building the organization.
