"Big Levers" for Creating the Best Schools We've Ever Had

Internationally known author, trainer, and speaker Mike Schmoker will present on big levers for school change. He will discuss possible answers to the question of, with all the options available to promote improvement, where does one begin? Mike asserts that a good approach starts with the simple, proven structures, elements and concrete actions that are most apt to impact teaching and achievement powerfully and immediately for students. In this presentation, he will discuss a selection of those structures that he has personally found successful, as well as those supported by select experts and research. This event is sponsored by SchoolsMovingUp in collaboration with the San Diego County Office of Education's PEAK-3 project.

"This book offers a compelling message of hope and resolve. The authors' three-year journey in a multiplicity of diverse, underperforming, high-poverty schools across the nation has resulted in a treasure chest of knowledge and experiences about how to professionally develop data coaches in ways that benefit some of our most underserved students. This book provides powerful resources to those who have the belief, passion, and desire for implementing collaborative data inquiries in schools and districts." — From the Foreword by Ruth S. Johnson
