GROWING LEADERS FROM WITHIN: SCHOOL FORMS A TIGHT-KNIT LEARNING COMMUNITY TO TACKLE LITERACY

摘要

There are two types of school leadership initiatives. One gives existing leaders increasing leadership responsibilities. The other grows leaders from teachers who, at first, may not appear to be leaders at all. Barrington High School in Illinois chose the second type of initiative, igniting a literacy team that fostered teacher autonomy, focused on deep learning, and built a community of practice.
