Behind every successful inclusive school is a great principal with passion, vision, and a practical plan. With so much riding on their strong and proactive leadership, every principal and administrator will want this how-to book: the essential guide to bringing schoolwide inclusion from theory to practice.

New and veteran administrators will discover how to make schoolwide (and districtwide) reforms that support social and academic success-and help all students reach their full potential.
