Duval County Public Schools (DCPS) is poised to take action today that will lead to serving all students more effectively. Although the challenges are significant, including deep budget cuts, the district made the strategic choice to look thoroughly at how resources are currently allocated and now has a foundation for making decisions that will lead to greater teaching effectiveness, more successful turnaround schools, and targeted attention for students who need it most. This report lays out what has to be done, why and how. It shows that DCPS will have to make tough trade-offs, continue to work hard and to make the most of exceptional community support. It won't be easy, but the return on investment for the students of Duval County and the community more broadly warrants the effort. Like most school districts in the United States, DCPS has experienced deep budget cuts over the last few years and faces additional cuts in the near future. Duval County, like many districts, also faces a significant achievement gap between higher poverty and minority students and their peers. Rather than do less with a shrinking budget, DCPS must rethink resources to do more, both raising the bar and closing the gap. This report describes how DCPS, even with its low funding level, can reduce costs, rethink resource use, and make limited new investments that will improve teaching effectiveness and overall student performance. (Contains 3 footnotes.) [For the full report, "Realigning Resources for District Success: Duval County Public Schools Final Report," see ED541786.].

"At Moreland Hills Elementary School something remarkable is taking place," writes district literacy specialist Maren Koepf. "Across the past ten years, teachers and administrators have worked together to produce a learning network supporting our students, our staff, and our parents. . . Much like the once-apprehensive peasants in the tale of Stone Soup, folks have gradually emerged from their isolated 'huts' of offices and classrooms to generate mutual resources, solutions, and innovations. Through joint endeavors, we created a Comprehensive Literacy System." In Synchronizing Success, Maren takes you on a tour of one school's winning strategy for developing an efficient and effective network of literacy support from kindergarten through fifth-grade. Beginning with a practical framework for continuous improvement, Maren presents three guiding principles that underlie the comprehensive system: continuity across practice, instructional language, assessment, etc.; ongoing professional development; and collaborative leadership. She illustrates how applying these guiding principles extends a school's capacity for unity and innovation. The book shows how school leaders can create a comprehensive literacy system, throughout schools and across districts, by aligning change components with a vision for literacy education, and offers tried-and-true processes for developing:job-embedded professional development;common literacy assessments; consistent instructional frameworks;prioritized curricular focus;timely and targeted intervention. Enriched with tools, tips, and planning guides for incrementally managing positive change, Synchronizing Success provides literacy specialists, principals, and staff developers the resources and action steps necessary for designing an integrated literacy system tailor-fit to their school setting.

Linguistic, ethnic, and economic diversity is a major factor influencing how school reform ought to be accomplished at local, state, and government levels. This book examines the issue of successful school reform in diverse communities. It is the first to synthesize research on educational research on educational reform pertaining to racially and linguistically diverse students. It examines what is needed at the teacher, school, district, state, and federal levels for educational reform to be successful in multicultural, multilingual settings. Conclusions are based on a careful review of hundreds of recent quantitative and qualitative studies relating to educational reform in diverse communities. The authors conceptualize education as an interconnected and interdependent policy system and discuss the key policy, relational, political, and resource linkages that assist in achieving sustainable improvement in schools serving at-risk students.

I have known Dr. Massey for a number of years. During that time, he had quietly and consistently completed an amazing number of incredible humanitarian projects while conducting a very successful professional life. While serving as the school superintendent of the largest K-8 public school system in California, I asked him how he found the time and resources to help so many of the children in my district. Mind Realignment Naked Secrets for Building a Better You is his answer to my question. It is a remarkable collection of thought and advice intended to unleash the power within you. I have met many people who enrich the world through serving their fellow man. But very few have succeeded in accomplishing the goals that they set for themselves and almost no one sets the bar as high as Dr. Massey. I urge you to read this book. I will be applying its message chapter by chapter, day by day to my own life and work. Dr. Massey is a tough act to follow, but he has left a trail for us to take, if we will only aspire to making the world a better place. The Honorable Jean Fuller, PhD. State of California Assembly Member, 32nd District If you are looking for practical wisdom, incisive insight, hearty encouragement and wisdom both current and past, look no further! Drawing widely from many sources as well as using his own pen, Manzoor Massey has provided us all with what we much need wisdom for life. This book will, no doubt, bless and inspire and challenge and change you. Randall L. Roberts, Senior Pastor Loma Linda University, Loma Linda, California Practical, simple, but provocative tool to realign the minds of all who are willing to part with their unproductive past and experience a more rewarding future. Dr. Massey was vice-president of my corporation. I requested him to apply the wisdom of his book to train my executive teams. If heeded, this book will build better families, better communities and better businesses. Jose Arredondo, Businessman Bakersfield, California Dr. Massey has written an empowering, uplifting, and inspiring book for us all. Through his many years of experience and study, he has compiled a wealth of valuable wisdom, and he has graciously passed them on to us. I whole-heartedly recommend that you read this book with an open heart and mind and get ready for real nuggets of truth that apply to real life, and can be transformational! Pastor James Ranger Bakersfield New Life Center Dr. Massey is a keen student of human behavior and its impact on life. In Mind Realignment for Excellence he presents succinct and practical advice for rebuilding your life. Best of all, it illustrates and advocates balance the very quality that is so easily lost in the juggling of competing priorities that form our daily agendas. The book's format is best suited for the baby-boomer - iPod generation. Lowell C. Cooper, General Vice President General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Washington D. C. Dr. Massey's Mind Realignment Naked Secrets for Building a Better You is to the serious person what the power-bar is to the devoted athlete. It is full of succinct and powerful statements packed with energy. All it takes to fall upon a pearl of wisdom is to just open a page and look anywhere and it lands on the bull's eye each time. The reflection given to digest it, and the effort spent in applying it, is bound to be rewarded with lasting inner healing. Devadas Moses, MD, DrPH. Loma Linda, California
