Modifying the school calendar is a primary reform effort that enhances the academic agenda of the schools and responds to current issues in American education. School Calendar Reform: Learning in All Seasons reviews all aspects of restructuring the school-year calendar: presents concepts and research pertaining to school-calendar reform; and examines the theory of year-round education so the general public, educators, and policymakers might better understand the issues involved. It also includes definitions of the various types of year-round education, the historical background and recent developments of calendar restructuring, responses to common questions posed by those involved in calendar reform, an explanation of program evaluation, and indicators of school quality. This book will be of interest to administrators, educators, school officials, parents, and the general public. Book jacket.

Book excerpt: No one can deny the significance attributed to the issue of reconciling work and private life by contemporary society, the EU and other international organisations. Its relevance is evident in the multifaceted nature of this topic and the need for each party to the employment contract to strike a proper balance between professional and personal responsibilities, based on the assumption that people can successfully harmonise their work with life. Following on from these considerations, this volume provides a detailed analysis of work-life balance and its regulation in a number of EU countries, emphasizing the consequences that the current economic crisis has brought about in this field.

Book excerpt: This book has been developed for both new and experienced principals; it lays out everyday challenges and administrative necessities to help principals plan strategically for the academic year. This work provides a month-to-month guide to make the school year run smoothly from opening to closing. Chapters cover key tasks for each month beginning in July: overview of tasks; communications--letters, memos, correspondence, media relationships; planning--workshops, orientations, field trips, fundraising activities; personnel--assignments, schedules, rosters, tenure recommendations; and checklists to monitor progress with an assortment of tasks for each month. These checklists offer flexibility for modification, and the monthly calendar helps busy administrators avoid reinventing the wheel each year. Appendices include sample documents, teachers' manual index, and various memos covering fundraising, building security, class elections, locker cleanup, weekly memo, orientation agenda, and emergency drills, among others.
