All schools are different. Each school possesses its own unique characteristics, culture, and community. These differences make up a school's genetic structure.
In today's educational climate, it is more important than ever that we pay attention to how a school's "genetic code" can be enhanced to create a better learning environment. This book tells the story of how two schools that had at-risk traits were able to overcome many challenges that plague schools across the nation.
Public education is a constitutional civil right and the lifeblood of our communities. Regardless of the genetic structure a school may have, we can improve these conditions. Follow the practical steps shared in this book and witness growth and achievement in your school.
