Abstract	This book focuses on the use of the Paideia Proposal to retrain America's teaching force, thus improving education. It is based on experiences operating the Paideia program at Sullivan High School in Chicago. It begins with an interview with the director of the Urban School Improvement Project at the University of Illinois about staff development and the Paideia Proposal. Next it presents a paper, "The Paideia Program of Educational Reform" (James Moses) and an abstract of a paper by Sullivan High School's principal, "The Program: The Engineering of the Paideia Program" (Robert D. Brazil). Five chapters include (1) "Thoughts on Paideia"; (2) "Development of Personnel"; (3) "On-Site Inservice"; (4) "Related Literature"; and (5) "A Merging of Philosophies: The Next Steps." Finally, there are seven appendixes: Sullivan High School Paideia Program 1990-1991 through 1993-1994; the Paideia Institute of Hyde Park Weekend Immersion Retreats, Fall 1991-Spring 1992; An Overview of Selected Readings for Seminars in English, History and Science in the Sullivan High School Curriculum; Two Year Reports on the Paideia Proposal in Chicago, the Department of Research and Evaluation; Principal Operants; Board of Education of the City of Chicago; and School Improvement Plans.
