Description

Turning High-poverty Schools Into High-performing Schools by William Parrett and Kathleen M. Budge Schools across the US and Canada are successfully addressing the challenges of poverty to support students' academic success. This updated edition of Turning High-poverty Schools Into High-performing Schools provides a framework for schools to replicate these positive changes. The authors have expanded their original framework to include new insights on equity, trauma, and social-emotional learning, drawing on lessons from 12 additional high-poverty, high-performing schools. By focusing on students' social, emotional, and academic needs, educators can work within the updated Framework to address the unique challenges faced by students living in poverty. The book offers a range of tools and strategies to build collective efficacy among school staff, helping to close persistent achievement gaps and reverse patterns of low performance. With its practical advice and evidence-based approaches, this book is essential reading for school leaders, teachers, and other staff seeking to improve outcomes for all students, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds.
