“With solid practical research, organized rubrics and good planning, the authors say the low-achieving school can be transformed.
“Mardale Dunsworth and Dawn Billings are co-founders of a consulting company and have worked together at the Oregon and Washington departments of education, where they designed professional development for curriculum and instruction topics and provided services to low-performing schools.
“Their book discusses ten themes from research that can be used as effectiveness indicators and the foundation for on-site school planning.
“For those who need to define where their schools are, where they should be headed and how to get there, this book gives step-by-step guidance. However, they must be willing to limit their own creativity and cover all the details to obtain the desired results, but if they do so, they are almost guaranteed success.”
