‘The Responsible Classroom Management Plan (RCMPlan™) truly lets teachers teach and the principal serve as the instructional leader. RCM is a brilliant concept that has cut office referrals by as much as 80% and dropout rates by 50%. The book provides principals and teachers with implementation steps for introducing the entire faculty or even the district to this wonderful program that takes students from a mindset of entitlement into a real-life world of being responsible for their own actions from day one.’
—Chris Lineberry, Principal
Harmon Elementary School, San Tan Valley, AZ
