Turning around, Transforming, and Continuously Improving Schools: Policy Proposals Are Still Based on a Two- Rather than a Three-Component Blueprint.

Abstract

Support for this work comes in part from the Office of Adolescent Health, Maternal and Child Health Bureau (Title V, Social Security Act), Health Resources and Services Administration (Project #U45 MC 00175) US Department of Health and Human Services. C learly, low performing, and especially failing schools, are a high priority concern for policy makers. And it is evident that fundamental systemic changes are necessary. There is, however, inadequate research and no consensus about a policy and practice blueprint and roadmap to guide such changes.
