Based on the book, College Acceleration, Eric J. Ban presents the stories of four secondary school leaders-all of whom have demonstrated an ability to lead diverse environments to drive gains in college, career, and workforce readiness that twenty-first century business require. School leaders will learn the four-part leadership framework of the College Acceleration Network: Leadership, Assessment, Intervention and Partnerships. These principles are research-based and classroom-proven to increase student engagement through personalized learning.
Ban starts with leadership philosophy and quickly moves into areas of training that will challenge your community to examine and adopt tangible practices for student success. From assessment protocols and regional economic partnerships to specific programs such as Gateways-a program developed at Dayton Early College to improve students' intellectual habits and management skills. The accompanying instructional guide will assist school leadership teams in this work.
