Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. How do school administrators ensure that a great faculty teaches with excellence and ultimately increases student performance, satisfaction, and enthusiasm? By supporting teachers, your school supports students and helps ensure your institution's long-term growth and success. So this book is not about teachers-it is really about students. By implementing the proper processes and procedures for comprehensive faculty development, your school provides the tools teachers need to best serve their students and find satisfaction in their careers. Anyone who works with faculty should keep this invaluable book close at hand. After reading Comprehensive Faculty Development, you will want to jump into creating or refining your school's framework for growth. Refreshing and eminently doable - Sarah Cooper, Dean of Studies, Flintridge Preparatory School (CA) I wish I had more years left in my career to guide others with CFD and help them see the results. This road map to continuous improvements is truly a gift to the profession. - Daniel McDonough, Headmaster, Portsmouth Abbey School (RI) This is the book I've been waiting for. It pulls together and clearly articulates all of the aspects of bringing new faculty into the community and ensuring their ongoing success. This student-centered framework is supported by ISM's trademark, rigorous research and communicated in a practical, accessible manner. - Sheri Homany, Associate Head of School, Hathaway Brown School (OH) Comprehensive Faculty Development provides practical guidance and model policies for independent school leaders to implement tomorrow in their school communities. Thank you for outlining how to develop mission-driven faculty development procedures from the hiring to termination process while providing realistic scenarios that all administrators face. - Adrienne Fourgette, High School Principal, Nardin Academy (NY) Our primary role as school leaders is to facilitate an environment where students are academically challenged and engaged by inspiring teachers. Comprehensive Faculty Development outlines in detail a plan that enables leaders to put all the elements in place to achieve that primary aim. The book is a must read for any school leader and should be required reading for all who have the enviable task of leading a group of faculty members. - Nathan Washer, Assistant Head of School, The Pine School (FL) Comprehensive Faculty Development provides a well-developed and thoughtful approach to faculty development. By separating the growth and evaluation components found in traditional faculty development programs, teachers feel free to learn and grow, and are more willing to take risks in the classroom. Student experiences are enriched and teacher morale improves when teachers feel supported to try new approaches. - Jo Stoltz, Academic Dean, Episcopal Collegiate School (AR) This book offers a well-informed look at how traditional, top-down evaluation actually thwarts teacher growth. Independently operated public charter schools are ideally positioned to build a different school culture-one that values teachers as professionals who are intrinsically motivated to direct their own growth while forming trusting relationships with colleagues who are empowered to support them. CFD's growth and renewal paradigm keeps teachers inspired, and it also addresses that hard-to-crack nut of relatively flat organizational structures in schools where teacher leadership opportunities are scarce. Charter school communities will find this approach congruent with their missions, which often include site-based management, shared decision-making, and authentic 'ownership' of the education process-a 'win-win' with teacher and, ultimately, student performance being maximized. - Gregory Meece, School Director, Newark Charter School (DE).…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. This manual provides a comprehensive, how-to perspective on the professional development of advisors and the strengthening of advisory programs in private-independent schools. While this book is intended for private school educators, we also hope that advisory program leaders in charter, magnet, and other public schools will find benefit in these pages as well. We have learned that readers of this book, regardless of type of school, are typically seeking a more robust and meaningful advisory program, one that is much more than simply homeroom and one that is built on the connection between advisor professional development and student well-being. A comprehensive guide to creating and strengthening advisory-the why, the how, the keys to success, the pitfalls to avoid, and the ways advisory can enrich the culture of the school. -- Robert Evans, Executive Director, The Human Relations Service A strong advising program is crucial in keeping a school's mission alive and vibrant in the daily life of the school. Unfortunately, most schools provide little, if any, professional development for faculty to support this important role, creating an inconsistent experience for its students. Whether a school is looking to start an advisory program, rejuvenate one, or provide concrete professional development for its faculty, Roger Dillow's Mission-Based Advisory: A Professional Development Manual is an important resource for all schools. -- Douglas H. Lagarde, Head of School, Severn School (MD) Whether your school is implementing an advisory program or looking to renew one, this book provides workable strategies that are mission-driven. The suggested activities-for the advisory program and for advisor professional development-contribute to the development and sustainability of positive school culture and social-emotional learning for your students. I'm going to use this book with my Lead Advisory Group as we look to enhance our Middle School program. -- Kathryn Christoph, Middle School Principal, Dwight-Englewood School (NJ) Mission-Based Advisory: A Professional Development Manual comprehensively frames the professional role of advisors and advisory programs and the meaningful relationships that develop between students and trusted adults in independent schools. More than ever, mission-driven independent schools are seeking ways to highlight the value added for students and families; implementation and application of an effective advisory program is a powerful example of value added and a distinctive quality of our schools. The personalized approach to advisory ensures that all students are supported through their academic and social/emotional growth. The strong interpersonal ties cultivated in advisory programs allow students to be known and valued with advisors supporting them in appropriate and significant ways. This Manual provides guidance for deans, counselors, administrators, and advisors to develop a new program or move an existing program to the next level. -- Irene G. Mortensen, Director of Studies, Gill St. Bernard's School (NJ).…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Being a member of the Board of Trustees for a private school is certainly an honor. You are asked to take into your care a school--to ensure that each student's education fulfills the school's mission, and that all students are nurtured and developed to their benefit. You must carry out that care by providing support-resources-to the School Head. Your relationship to the school-as with all Trustees--determines whether your school will be successful in the long term.Being a Board member is also somewhat puzzling. If you're like many Trustees, you're not sure how it happened. Maybe you were approached at a social event. Maybe another Board member had talked to you a while ago about it on the phone; you may even have forgotten the conversation. Maybe you were serving on a committee and this seemed the next logical step. You've become a private school Trustee.Now what?This book is based on more than four decades of working with the Boards of hundreds of private schools. Independent School Management (ISM) has honed its research and recommendations over those years to provide the best possible service to our schools.
