Sinossi

Your game plan for getting boys on the path to higher achievement

As a school leader, Kelley King has walked the talk: she successfully led her own staff to close the achievement gap between boys and girls in reading and writing in just one year. In this book, readers get King’s step-by-step, research-based leadership plan for jump-starting boys’ achievement. King shares: 

  • Critical insight into the brain-based differences between boys and girls
  • First-hand leadership and classroom experiences to provide educators with a blueprint for creating schools where boys (and girls!) thrive
  • Ready-to-use activities and resources for leading a successful gap-closing initiative
