Recenzii

"My passion and belief is that all schools CAN be places that effectively meet the needs of ALL students; allowing them to thrive and reach their fullest potential has been revived!  Quaglia and his colleagues paint a picture of the school that every teacher wants to teach in, and that every parent wants their children to learn in.  This beautifully articulated narrative infused with powerful data and realistic strategies has inspired me to sprint towards the Aspire High vision for schools.  Without doubt, readers will be challenged to measure their own choices and actions against the author’s quest for “amazingness” and the dream for all schools to Aspire High!"
