Successful principals today need skills in both management and leadership because both are essential to achieve success in all facets of running a school—one is not necessarily more important than the other. However, there are not many books solely devoted to school management. Most work on school management is part of larger works on school administration. Managing Today’s Schools: New Skills for School Leaders in the 21st Century is unique in that the focus on managerially operating a school does not hinder discussion on the interconnectedness between management and leadership. Additionally, emphasis is placed on 21st- century cutting-edge ideas about school management. Each chapter includes case study-type scenarios with thought-provoking questions that simultaneously summarize the chapter while also helping readers think about the ways they might put the ideas of the chapter into practice.

If you are looking for statistical data that validates the achievement gap within the educational system THIS IS NOT THAT BOOK! This book was written by a high school Chemistry teacher that currently teaches juniors and seniors in an urban area with challenges in closing the achievement gaps. She is dedicated to finding solutions to help build a future generation that demonstrates intelligence and show a genuine love themselves and each other. From this book, you will learn real answers that revolutionize the students in your classroom into productive individuals. Also, by practicing such techniques, you will witness the transformation of your student's mentality throughout the whole year; not just the beginning of the year or after grades are due. This book does not display strategies that "sound good on paper" written by administrators who have not been inside the class room in the past five years. Nor does this book contain another lesson plan strategy that shows you how to plan a lesson that great lesson that the students will not participate in. There are great strategies out there that if the student is willing, can be proven to be very successful. This book is the connection between those ideas that work and actually seeing results. The main objective this book implies is that the success of your classroom begins with you, the teacher. There are many types of teaching styles and personalities an instructor will possess, and would not be productive for the students. You will learn how to reach those students who create the achievement gap without consuming yourself in the job. You will learn how to find your "niche" and effectively teach all your students that they will all succeed in your classroom. This book is for every teacher. You may find that all of the approaches used may not be for you. However, you will develop your own personal tactic that will change the productivity in your classroom.

Learn From a teacher who’s been through it all! Real talk about thriving and learning in the classroom When most educators think of K-12 classroom management, we traditionally focus on ways to keep students quiet, well behaved, and on task. In order to better prepare them for the realities of today’s world, we should instead think of classroom management as preparing students to work collaboratively, form their own thoughts and opinions, stay independently motivated, and listen to their classmates. In the interconnected 21st century, classroom management is about building students up, not breaking them down. With those changes in mind, this handy guide offers 50 proven best practices for managing today’s classroom in a user-friendly format, complete with just-in-time tools and relatable teacher-to-teacher anecdotes and advice. Culled from years of real-world classroom experience, this book will give you the tips and tricks you need to succeed all school year long, including Making the pivotal first weeks of school count Forming positive relationships with your students Inspiring creativity and maintaining discipline through curriculum and instruction Utilizing other adults (parents, teachers, and administrators) as resources Wowing your students with "spins" and making a lasting emotional impact Keeping yourself sane, from maintaining work-life balance to managing professional relationships This book delivers the mission-critical information every teacher needs to effectively manage the classroom, and prepare students with the social skills and communication tools they’ll need to succeed in today’s world.

Children enter the school doors today with many diverse needs: mental health problems, ADHD, anxiety, victims of physical or sexual abuse, homelessness, or facing some other type of trauma. Teachers in today’s classrooms are struggling to understand the needs of their students and to provide a supportive and nurturing environment, while maintaining structure and routine. In whatever setting students are, teachers must understand the challenges that students come to school facing, know how to assess the needs of the children, build positive relationships with them, collaborate with others, and take care of themselves. This first book in a two book volume explores the needed components in setting the stage for meeting the needs of the students. The teachers who serve these children need a comprehensive set of tools to meet their needs. This volume, along with the second one that provides the specific interventions that teachers will need to implement, is that comprehensive resource for educators.
