  13. 8th Grade Algebra: Finding a Formula For Success • “Students who take challenging courses and meet high standards in middle school are much more likely to enter high school ready to succeed. “ Achieve, Inc. • “The good news is that if it’s done well, districts can meet the goal of increasing enrollment in higher level math. The bad news is that’s it’s hard to do well.” Cathy Seeley, President, NCTM

  47. John Cattelan

  48. "Principals must live with paradox: They must have a sense of urgency about improving their schools, balanced by the patience to sustain them for the long haul. They must focus on the future, but remain grounded in today. They must see the big picture, while maintaining a close focus on details. They must be strong leaders who give away power to others.” -- Richard DuFour, "Help Wanted: Principals who can Lead Professional Learning Communities." NASSP Bulletin (1999).
