In many of my conversations I hear comments about the paradigm shift that must take place in order for everyone to work together to make our schools equitable and effective. This is a document that shows what happens in schools that have succeeded against all odds.  As a person who wants clear goals and a way to measure progress towards those goals, I latched onto the section about indicators of accountability.  With the release of this report, we now have research-based indicators to measure ways the schools are accountable to parents and community.
