This section will have a list of community leaders and what
they are reading. It will give folks an opportunity to
get to know them and to access resources.

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.
