"At last, we have a book that provides practical, day-to-day advice for administrators to consider when establishing a learning community. Daresh helps school leaders both understand the importance of their personal values about shared leadership and appreciate how individuals within the school, district, and community are essential to building a shared learning community. The wealth of examples and school-based scenarios illustrate how these ideas translate into practice. A wonderful resource for a book study for teachers and principals."-Bruce Barnett, Professor University of Texas at San Antonio"Daresh continues his legacy of bridging scholarship and practice within a context of strengthening school cultures by supporting positive interactions between all the people who interact within and around them. As usual, his tone is friendly and approachable, and his points to ponder are both practical and compelling. Aspiring, new, and experienced principals will benefit from the structured opportunity afforded by this book to reflect on their own values and how these values shape their leadership."-Mary Beth Cunat, Assistant Principal Burley School, Chicago, NYRaise student achievement by building a community of ALL stakeholders-both within and around your school!Written for both new and experienced principals, this resource provides a blueprint for building visionary learning communities that improve student learning not only by shaping the internal school community-faculty and staff-but also by creating a partnership with the external community-district educators, families, community organizations, and service agencies.Reflecting contemporary research and the authors‘ extensive work with principals, the book includes scenarios that illustrate the work of real principals in elementary, middle, and secondary schools.
