Book of the Week: The Superintendent’s Work with Principals: Improving Instruction and Achieving Results
The Superintendent’s Work with Principals: Improving Instruction and Achieving Results balances the expansive work of the school superintendent with prioritizing the most important leverage points to increase student achievement.  The strategies, tools, and examples within the book will clearly resonate with those who currently serve as superintendents, district leaders, and principals, as well as with those aspiring to take on these complex roles, and with the boards and programs who are charged with selecting them.

"After years of building and district leadership, I sought out a professional learning opportunity that would be both engaging and informative. Dr. Durkin's book, The Superintendent's Work with Principals, is the perfect combination of theory into practice. The down-to-earth explanation of research-based practices including the Will and Skill Leadership Framework provide a helpful text to guide effective leadership coaching."

"Practical, intense, cohesive, and challenging—it is all right here stressing the balance between core values and context. Pia Durkin’s work and those who worked with her make the superintendent’s practice come alive and remind us that improved teaching that leads to better results for all students is always, always, always the center of our work: it is why we do what we do."
