It's Not Us Against Them: Creating the Schools We Need

This book is for K-12 educators interested in creating schools that are effective for 21st century learners. Drawing from three decades of experience, Ray McNulty shares his insights on where we should be in education and how to succeed in the school improvement process. Overviews of the International Center’s three proven tools –Rigor/Relevance Framework, Learning Criteria to Support 21st Century Learners, and Components of School Excellence – show how teachers, principals, and superintendents can use them to strengthen their work. Thought-provoking questions, observations from outside the field, and case studies of successful schools make this book a must-read for any educator who is committed to school renewal. The main title is a quote from a student explaining what makes Brockton (Mass.) High School different from other schools.
