Description

As described by the authors: The pressure is on.Throughout the country, educators and administrators are working hard to make sure students pass standardized tests and graduate. At the same time, teachers are overwhelmed by ever-increasing demands. Efforts at reforming schools often replicate the same approaches and net the same discouraging results. Staff at many schools feel defensive and powerless as a result of being unable to meet standards they didn’t set and don’t know how to achieve. Over the school year, leadership teams will be given the support and tools that utilize a humanistic approach to implementing programs and systems that bring academic press, social support, and relational trust together in unique ways.  Based on the understanding that old beliefs are changed by supporting new behaviors, the approach includes acquiring and using data in innovative and intentional ways. Properly conducted, the approach results in high morale, a sense of inclusiveness and success, increased efficacy, and improved metrics in all areas of education.The guidance offered is generalizable to all schools but is particularly potent for those struggling with low achievement and/or low morale.School leaders who have an overarching sense of what needs to happen but don’t know exactly how to integrate the nuts and bolts of transformation will be stimulated by the ideas in this professional development and encouraged by its practicability.  (Salina, Charles, et al.
