"You Can't Do It Alone provides school leaders with a crisp summary of opinion research among teachers, parents, and the public conducted by Public Agenda, Education Sector and other respected analysts. It offers tips on what leaders can do to more successfully engage these groups in areas such as reforming teacher evaluation, turning around low-performing schools, and building support for world-class standards"-- Provided by publisher. "Today, having good ideas for improving schools is not enough. Superintendents and principals need to build a consensus for change in their communities and within the schools themselves. Reform simply won't work unless teachers, students, parents, and community members grasp the need for change and begin to see themselves as part of the solution. You Can't Do It Alone explains what it will take to engage these crucial groups in the mission of reform and offers practical, down-to-earth advice on how to do it"-- Provided by publisher.
