St. Louis Schools Leaders Team Up on Preschool Expansion - Education Week - 0 views

  • The preschool program is counted as a bright spot in the troubled district, and an example of the working partnership between Kelvin R. Adams, 57, the district's superintendent since 2008, and Mary J. Armstrong, the president since 2003 of the St. Louis Teachers Union, an affiliate of the American Federation of Teachers. Born and raised in St. Louis, Ms. Armstrong, 60, has spent her entire career in the district. In February, Mr. Adams' contract was renewed for an additional two years, until 2016.

The Antidepressant Generation - NYTimes.com - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    College deans have written about incoming freshman being "crispies" or "teacups": the crispies so burned out by the pressures of high school that they get to college unable to engage in the work, and the teacups so fragile or overprotected in their formative years that they fall apart at the first stress they encounter.  What can/should k-12 leaders do?

Strategies for Community Engagement in School Turnaround | U.S. Department of Education - 0 views

  • Turnaround Case Studies by ERS Strategies: Denver Case Study Education Resource Strategies analyzed strategies to turn around low-performance schools undertaken by six large urban districts and four education management organizations and then developed 10 case studies. The attached case study is about school turnaround in Denver Public Schools.
  •  
    This paper examines one essential tactic for making school turnaround more effective: community engagement. To explore community engagement in action, the Reform Support Network (RSN) conducted reviews between April and August of 2013 of 11 States and districts, urban and rural, engaged in the communities surrounding low-performing schools. The enquiry yielded five primary lessons or takeaways about successful community engagement: make engagement a priority and establish an infrastructure, communicate proactively in the community, listen to the community and respond to its feedback, offer meaningful opportunities to participate, and turn community supporters into leaders and advocates.

An Edcamp at the U.S. Department of Education? - Finding Common Ground - Education Week - 0 views

  • You may be skeptical of edcamps, but you shouldn't be. They are much more engaging, and widely held than you may think. According to Kristen Swanson, Senior Educational Research Leader at BrightBytes, and co-founder of the Edcamp Movement, "Edcamps are more than just an idea or theory; they're an international movement. The model has been replicated in 41 states and dozens of countries worldwide. Over 25,000 educators have participated in a regional Edcamp event, and many more have participated in an Edcamp-style event at their school."   Considering how grassroots edcamps are, it's going to be interesting to what happens, when the U.S. Department of Education (USDOE) holds their edcamp in June.
