Building on 20 years of careful research and real-world testing, the authors show administrators how to assess their schools' health. The goal is to improve middle schools by making sure the "culture" is right for all groups - students, teachers, staff. The authors call their measurement tools the Organizational Climate Description Questionnaire Revised for Middle Schools (OCDQ-RM), for tapping the openness of a school's professional interactions, and the Organizational Health Inventory for Middle Schools (OHI-M), for capturing the health of interpersonal relationships in schools. The OCDQ-RM (openness) questionnaire and the OHI-M (health) inventory are included in this book - ready to copy and administer. These measurements are user-friendly and easy to interpret; scoring directions are clearly explained. School leaders, especially superintendents and principals, can use these hands-on tools to understand what's going on in their schools and then make changes as necessary. Actual case studies show how using the questionnaires can help make every middle school a high-quality and positive learning environment.

All schools need to constantly reflect on the quality of their work and the progress and achievements that they make over time. The primary goal of an accountability system is to help schools improve through critical self-reflection. It enables students, teachers, and other members of the school community to evaluate their practices, especially the quality of learning. The school community welcomes an external viewpoint because it can enhance and strengthen good practices. The Turning Points accountability process has two major components: the Annual Assessment and the School Quality Review (SQR). This guide focuses on one of the two components, namely the School Quality Review, which includes the School Self-Assessment and the School Quality Review Visit. Two appendices are included: (1) Sample Visit Schedule; and (2) Sample Report Format and Example of Commendations, Issues, and Recommendations. (Contains 5 footnotes.).

Because positive changes in a school's capacity to educate all its students are not automatic, the California Department of Education has launched an educational reform model embodied in a comprehensive School Improvement Plan (SIP). The model is based on student-centered educational standards (quality criteria) that direct the four SIP processes of planning, implementation, self-study, and program quality review. These processes were developed to engage the entire school community in improvement activities to benefit all student populations. This four-part document has been designed to help members of a quality review team conduct a review of middle school programs. Part I describes how the quality criteria can be used for planning and implementing school improvement initiatives at a school site. Part II is the guide for conducting a school's self-study. Part III describes program quality review procedures, the application of quality criteria to the school's curriculum and instructional program, and the means for developing suggestions in the report of findings. Part IV details the quality criteria for middle grades, including eight curricular and five schoolwide criteria. Curricular criteria reflect the major themes of state curriculum handbooks, frameworks, and curriculum guides. Schoolwide criteria, emphasizing students in transition, are derived from various school improvement publications and the judgment of middle grades educational practitioners. (MLH)

Middle school educators are facing many challenges in todayOCOs educational and political environment due to the focus on excellence as measured by achievement tests. It is the purpose of this book to provide a discussion of how middle schools can provide a strong standards-based academic program while, at the same time, remaining focused on the student-centered principles upon which the middle school experience should be based. The text is intended to aid readers in the development of the teaching philosophies, behaviors, and skills relevant to effective instruction in the unique middle school environment. This emphasis reflects the philosophy that teachers ultimately determine the quality of schooling and that the learning environment should be student-centered while maintaining a strong academic foundation. The text begins with an overview of the origins and essential elements of middle schools; proceeds through discussions of middle school teachers, students, schooling structures, and teaching strategies; and concludes with a view of the future. Specifically, chapters offer suggestions for teaching and learning in the middle school environment, for developing essential teaching characteristics, for creating a positive middle school climate, for planning the curriculum, for providing developmentally appropriate instruction, and for assessing and reporting student progress. This outstanding new edition provides a comprehensive, current, and cohesive text that allows the reader to more clearly understand the nature and importance of significant standards issues and developments within the ongoing evolution of the modern American middle school."
