Wood opens by defining successful reform as graduating students who are active, engaged members of both their high school and their local communities. But far from a book of abstract ideas about how to reach that goal, Time to Learn zeroes in on the nitty-gritty details behind any successful school-restructuring effort. Wood identifies common and seemingly unsolvable hurdles like scheduling, the time crunch, and class size, offering proven strategies for coping with the crucial everyday issues that can derail genuine improvement. Equally important, he shares practical techniques for dealing with external pressures like standards and testing while maintaining your commitment to student-centered practices." "Whether you are a school administrator, a teacher, or a small-school advocate in a rural, suburban, or urban district, find time for Time to Learn. Its plans, resources, ideas, and inspiring stories will show you how you can restructure your high school to work for every student."--BOOK JACKET. 650 0 $a High schools $z United States $x Administration $v Case studies. 650 0 $a High school principals $z United States $v Case studies. 650 0 $a School improvement programs $z United States $v Case studies. 650 7 $a High school principals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00956144 650 7 $a High schools $x Administration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00956290 650 7 $a School improvement programs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01107461 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a High school $2 gnd 650 7 $a Schulentwicklung $2 gnd 650 7 $a Schulleitung $2 gnd 651 7 $a USA. $2 swd 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423765 655 4 $a Case studies. 710 2 $a Federal Hocking High School (Stewart, Ohio) 776 08 $i Online version: $a Wood, George H.
