| Abstract | The components of a successful school are clear. Many educators can easily list them: high expectations for all students, a safe and orderly learning environment, strong instructional leadership, highly qualified teachers, data-driven decision making, etc. Then why don't more schools change the what they are doing to mirror them? Knowing the components of effective schools and using that knowledge to transform schools that have none of them into shining examples of success is not an easy or clear task. Certainly, the recipe is different for each school. In nearly every case of a chronically failing school, however, true change requires breaking the habit of dysfunctional processes and raising expectations--for staff and students--that has been low for years. Public Impact, working on behalf of the Center on Innovation & Improvement, examined five schools that successfully restructured. By current accountability standards, these schools had long-documented histories of poor performance and failed efforts to improve. At each of these schools, multiple factors enabled them to kick the low-performance habit. Their stories are told herein. Two appendices are included: (1) School Section Methodology; and (2) School Profile Sources. (ERIC). |
