VASCD 2010 Annual Conference


Speaker: BILL DAGGETT Leading Schools During Challenging Times


Schools today face multiple challenges – declining resources, demands to improve student perfomance, aging staff…to name a few. Overlaying these challenges are opportunities (although seen by some as additional challenges) presented by Race to the Top and other federal initiatives, driven by the four assurances – standards, effective teaching, data sys- tems and turn around schools.


What is the leader to do? In this preconference, Dr. Daggett will use our nation’s most rapidly improving schools as examples to help administrators and teacher leaders create an action plan to address these multiple challenges/opportunities.


Willard R. Daggett, Ed.D., CEO of the International Center for Leadership in Education, is recognized worldwide for his proven ability to move education systems towards more rigor- ous and relevant skills and knowledge for all students. He has assisted a number of states and hundreds of school districts with their school improvement initiatives, many in response to No Child Left Behind and its demanding adequate yearly progress (AYP) provisions. Dr. Daggett has also collaborated with education ministries in several countries and with the Council of Chief State School Officers, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the National Governors Association, and many other national organizations.
