Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would a professional learning community look like if we really meant it when we committed to ensuring the learning of each student? What would we consider good enough for our own children? In this resource, Robert Eaker and Janel Keating suggest that these two questions drive committed leaders to commit to specific leadership practices to embed PLC practices throughout an entire district. They share leadership strategies and insights on what works, what doesnżt, and why, based on their experience in the White River School District in Washington state as well as extensive experience working with other schools and districts across North America. With a focus on creating simultaneous top-down and bottom-up leadership, the authors show how to grow professional learning communities by providing direction and encouraging innovation at every level of the district. Using many examples and reproducible tools, they illustrate how effective district leaders, principals, and teams work together to create a guaranteed and viable curriculum.The PLC journey begins by articulating a moral purpose: a dedication to ensuring the learning of every student. The authors explain how to introduce the PLC concept across a district and build shared knowledge of what it will mean to become a professional learning community. Then they explain, in detail, how to align district- and school-level policies and procedures with the learning mission. In particular, the authors focus on the critical role of district and principal leadership in creating high-performing collaborative teams. They explain provide a roadmap for hiring, communicating expectations, supporting, and monitoring principals and teams in ensuring student learning.The authors then dig deep into the work of collaborative teacher teams, explaining how districts and principals can provide specific support for each step of the teamsż work to answer the four critical questions of learning. They discuss how to focus professional development around the work of teams to ensure adult learning, and finally include a plan and tools for evaluating district progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban school superintendents face unprecedented challenges. They must ensure that all students achieve a high level of performance despite a lack of resources, the intractable problems of race and poverty, a chaotic governance structure, and the often conflicting demands of teachers, parents, unions, and the community. This important book, edited by the co-directors of the prestigious Harvard Urban Superintendents Program (USP), explores the ways in which superintendents can make a difference in the lives of each child, every day, by being knowledgeable about and driven by what happens in the classroom. The editors and distinguished contributors cover a wide range of vital topics that superintendents face from the day they are hired to the day they retire, such as how superintendents can most effectively communicate their vision, plan strategically, institute instructional reform, engage the community, and allocate resources. The book is filled with illustrative examples of well-known superintendents who are trailblazing new means to achieve educational fairness for all children and are changing the landscape of urban school systems today. In addition, Every Child, Every Classroom, Every Day highlights the Urban Superintendents Program's Leadership Framework, which is designed to aid administrators and educators in decision making and achieving equity. An ancillary CD containing teaching notes and exhibits is also included (in the print edition only) as an aid to teachers who wish to scaffold material discussed in the text. Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file. These materials will be made available for download upon purchase of the digital edition Co-published with Education Week and the American Association of School Administrators.
