The Highly Effective Teacher's Guide to Closing the Achievement Gap

A road map for teachers who strive to be highly effective
leaders in our nation's classrooms

Teach For America has fought the daunting battle of educational
equity for the last twenty years. Based on evidence from classrooms
across the country, they've discovered much about effective
teaching practice, and distilled these findings into the six
principles presented in this book. The Teaching As
Leadership
framework inspires teachers to: Set Big Goals;
Invest Students and Their Families; Plan Purposefully; Execute
Effectively; Continuously Increase Effectiveness; Work
Relentlessly. The results are better educational outcomes for our
nation's children, particularly those who live in low-income
communities.
