RESPONDING TO THE EVERY STUDEN: (Integrating Essa and Professional Learning Communities)

Inhaltsangabe

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) presents US educators and local and state legislators with a rare opportunity: to reconceive schooling and education funding to better address students&; needs. Richard DuFour, Douglas Reeves, and Rebecca DuFour showcase how to make the most of this opportunity by fully committing to the Professional Learning Communities at Work&; process, which holds the greatest potential for maximizing student achievement.

How this book will help your PLC incorporate the Every Student Succeeds Act:

• Explains the roles federal and state governments play in K-12 education funding with the adoption of ESSA and how it relates to past educational reforms such as ESEA and No Child Left Behind.
• Emphasizes the importance of using the PLC at Work&; process to respond to ESSA.
• Provides the strategies and mindsets teachers, district leaders, and states should implement to enhance student learning.
• Presents the right work PLC schools at any level should engage in to support student and adult success.
• Highlights indicators of school-level accountability and system accountability, as well as an accountability framework states should use to promote school improvement and success.
