Currently, schools define themselves by state metrics. But when we dig down into the numbers, questions remain: Do good schools get positive numbers despite good instruction, or because of it? Do lower performing schools get negative numbers because of subpar instruction, or something else? Which characteristics of the building's community determine a school’s success?
Amy M. Dujon's The Gritty Truth of School Transformation: Eight Phases of Growth to Instructional Rigor answers these questions and more by revealing how schools of all shapes, sizes, and socio-economic and academic backgrounds can achieve real faculty and student growth by implementing rigorous instruction in the classroom and empowering school leaders to establish and grow a vision of excellence that involves both teachers and students.
