Additional Information
“This book is a useful tool for any administrative team to use in evaluation of the whole school system. Robert J. Marzano and Patrick B. Hardy do an excellent job in allowing this resource to be an easy how-to for any administrator to set up a system for success in their school based on high reliability leadership. It truly was a pleasure being able to learn from them.”
“Marzano and Hardy have written an easy-to-read implementation guide for a competency-based school! Any schools, even those not part of Marzano Academies, can use the proficiency scales to score their programs and review the specific approaches presented to locate areas of improvement and enhancement. This text pairs well with work on standards-referenced grading and other Marzano Resources topics and seems like a natural next step.”
