Summary

Learn how to transform your school through an effective standards-based system. This straightforward action guide, now in its second edition, is about real, day-to-day practice-not theory. It tells the story of reform through the hard work of actual districts-ordinary communities that have made an extraordinary commitment to world-class schools-and translates their success into a series of steps every school can follow.
