Editorial Review:

Product Description:


"Because the authors are critically aware of even the smallest detail and its ultimate effects on policy and stakeholders, their conclusions are not only logical but very well thought out and can be applied for maximum benefit."
-Michael Fisher, Critical Thinking Specialist
Starpoint Middle School, Lockport, NY



"The authors do an excellent job of recommending practical strategies to help school leaders reason through policy dilemmas. As an academic, a former practitioner, and former member of an educational policy and advocacy organization, I give a ‘hats off’ to the authors for approaching educational policy and school leadership in this way."
-Carri A. Schneider, Adjunct Faculty
Urban Educational Leadership Program University of Cincinnati
