Recenzii

"Navigating the complexities of the educational landscape is a challenge, at best. Translating the reality emanating from this complexity into strategic and tactical action designed to build collective capacity and improve student performance is even more challenging.
Johnston and Williamson have created a practical and reader-friendly ‘travel guide’ that steers the reader through obstacles and opportunities confronting school leaders. Your route to success is enhanced by the authors’ experience and informed perspective."
--Richard A. Flanary, Deputy Executive for Programs & Services, National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP)
"Johnston and Williamson have taken a challenging topic for school officials—lack of funding—and provided practical strategies for school leaders and educators. The Four Rs for leading schools—Reduce, Refine, Restructure, and Regenerate—offer real school examples and scenarios to respond to the changes in the education landscape. School leaders faced with similar problems will find this book a valuable resource."
--William D. Waidelich, EdD, CAE, Executive Director, Association for Middle Level Education
