The Key to our Success is all aboutRemoving Barriers to Learning!
•You can’t be successful today by being alone; autonomy does not get you to great!•It is about discipline.•It is about collaboration.
Success by Design!
We must move from beating the odds to changing the
odds.
We must continue our move fromSuccess by Chance to…
WHY CHANGE?
The imperative is well-stated by the CarnegieTask Force on Education:
School systems are not responsible for meeting every need of their students.
But….
When the need directly affects learning, the school must meet the challenge.

Schools are Improving – BUT
When the rate of change outside an organization is faster than the rate of change inside the organization, the
end is near.

Something Different
The primary aim of education is not to enable students to do well in school, but to help them do well in the lives they lead outside of school.
Making a better “20th Century School”
is not the answer.
Too many schools, districts, and systems are reactive
rather than strategic.
Simply said, we get what we design for!
Schools must find new and innovative ways to improve student
performance with increasingly fewer resources.
