Designing School Systems for All Students provides a clear
methodology for school leaders, teachers, and school board members
to follow as they redesign their schools for the benefit of
students. The authors demonstrate how school leaders set the
expectations for all students to learn and grow as important
contributors to the culture. In the effective schools that the
authors describe, students deliver performances, discuss and
conduct important inquiries, and lead profound learning activities.
The book explains how curriculum can be redesigned to engage
students in advanced cognitive and social and emotional
development. Additionally, several barriers to great schools that
include assessment practices, false testing procedures, poor
governance, ineffective leadership and staff development are
described in stark detail. Throughout the book are examples of
effective practices that make it possible for all students to
prosper in school. This book is filled with practical ideas that
are compiled into a toolkit to fix America's schools.
