THREE: What action can Miller take to show he leads and treats people fairly and with respect and dignity? He should look at the classroom data from teachers who have "slow learners" in their classes to assure himself that adequate time is given to both bright students and struggling students because student learning is indeed the fundamental purpose of public schools. He needs to meet frequently with faculty to gauge whether or not the instruction is effective for students of all backgrounds and ethnicities. He should insist that parent-teacher conferences take place with regularity and he should hold open meetings (if the PTA isn't holding regular meetings) to address concerns from parents and the community.
FOUR: What data and information should Miller use to ensure the quality of decisions? Miller needs to insist that faculty be vigilant in providing him with test results and other grade-related data within a prescribed time frame. If some students are having difficulty, Miller needs to know that those students are receiving extra help....
He must "promote the success of all students" (ISLLC 6) which means keeping a close eye on all data and he must insist on regular teacher evaluations as well; if a student isn't succeeding, it might reflect the quality of teaching.
FIVE: What action should Miller take to be sure any alternatives chosen meet instructional needs and meet curriculum that faculty and parents can approve? It is not wise to abruptly select an alternative strategy for teaching or evaluating instruction. Initially the principal must be committed to "a continuing dialogue with other decision makers" (including the district curriculum professionals) (ISLLC 6) to be sure ethical and social / educational considerations are met. Miller must be sure he is meeting the needs of the affluent community and the minority community with proper school resources -- and if those resources are not available, he must find a way to bring them into the school. Good communication is vital vis-a-vis "concerning trends, issues, and potential changes in the environment" that his school…
Based on these findings, a number of assessment tools are used to evaluate students' abilities and the most appropriate level of participation in general educational settings (A Parent's Guide, 2002). Early childhood education programs in District 75 have been affected by other federal mandates, including the Governmental Performance Reporting Act (GPRA) and the Program Assessment Rating Tool (PART); both of these initiatives require that all federal programs (e.g., Head Start,

One of the most crucial areas that they have helped develop is the integration of Asian development into the world arena. The current explosion of economic growth and social change within Asia has had a profound affect on world politics; Annan has been a crucial player in helping to shape the transition to include Asian players within the new United Nations. This has been evidenced by the new selection

If students are misbehaving, they are not engaged in their lessons. Behavior management is, unfortunately, a priority focus at Springfield Gardens, to the detriment of instruction. This is the point that the three interviewees continued to stress. None of them blamed the teachers for failing to engage students; the fault, as they see it, lies squarely with the students whose families apparently do not place a high value on
Huerta was very successful in helping Madero defeat Orozco's rebellion, eventually driving Orozco into the United States. However, Madero did not show the type of respect or appreciation that Huerta was expecting for his victory. On the contrary, Madero asked Huerta to account for campaign money. It was this slight that inspired Huerta to work against Madero. Of course, that slight alone would probably not have been sufficient to inspire
