This compelling guide masterfully demonstrates how high achievement can exist in the midst of high minority enrollment and high poverty.

These ‘Promising Practices’ are presented in a user-friendly, well-organized format, with real examples interwoven throughout.
An invaluable resource, it shares school-tested methods that can be replicated readily, including:
- 7 strategies for principals to be effective leaders, creating a culture of equal learning opportunities for all students
- 8 tactics for successful curriculum and classroom instruction, from assessment to staff development
- 9 proven ways to make meaningful connections with parents, which promote higher student and teacher performance
