Effective Schools

According to New Visions for Public Schools in order for your children to get the "Best Education Possible", they must attend effective schools. In my next ten posts, I will breakdown and define what an effective school should resemble. With each post, there will be a list of questions/suggestions to help you determine your school's performance and your place in improving it. This is extremely important because our children must receive the best from their educational experiences, which will determine their future in this global economy.

The one thing I want every parent to understand is that they are the most important influence in their child's life. Therefore, you must be a positive partner with the schools and work together to see that your child is meeting all academic benchmarks. The school administration and teachers are there to educate and assist in developing your child academically and socially. You are there to make sure your child respects you, adults, peers, and themselves and values an education.

Below are the ten post for Effective Schools: All of the ten topics will fit into one or more of the eight effective schools chart to the left.

Day 1 - Clear focus and high expectations for everyone at the school


Day 2 - A challenging academic program for all children


Day 3 - Principal as an instructional leader


Day 4 - An individualized learning program for all children


Day 5 - School-based professional training for teachers


Day 6 - Meaningful assessment/testing


Day 7 - Partnerships with community organizations
