Moving Schools: Lessons From Exemplary<br />

Leaders<br />

ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE<br />

A recently released evaluation project conducted on<br />

400 Title I schools has identified specific practices that<br />

leaders in exemplary schools engage in consistently and<br />

pervasively that leaders in typical or struggling schools<br />

do not. Research from this study identified the specific<br />

patterns and practices that each of these 400 previously<br />

struggling schools used to directly attribute to their<br />

successes. By implementing the common practices that<br />

will be presented, each of these schools was ultimately<br />

able to raise its achievement by at least 35 points. This<br />

session identifies the distinct exemplary leadership<br />

practices that every leader needs to start immediately<br />

and provides strategies for implementing each one<br />

effectively.<br />
