Drawing on his personal experience as a modern day school administrator, John M. Brucato believes that there is a pathway to survival, success, and enjoyment in the role of a school leader that keeps the focus on meeting the needs of young people, while nurturing relationship with all stakeholders responsible for bringing this to fruition. Creating a Learning Environment addresses the need to: Assess the culture that defines a school's environment, Reflect on the variables which can improve/degrade the culture, Determine what practices to employ in order to make necessary improvement. By using the practical examples related to the everyday dynamics of school business, educational leaders working in large or small schools can collectively identify with the situations, scenarios, and processes described. This book should be of interest to all educators who assume or aspire to leadership roles and administrative positions.

Industry Reviews

I have already recommended Creating a Learning Environment to three superintendents for use in principal mentoring programs. It would elicit rich conversation about everything from classroom instruction to teacher support and home-school communications. * School Administrator *
He says leaders must define their purpose relating to the culture of the schoolhouse, determine if they are a good match for the institution, and be committed to collaborating with fellow school leaders who have roots in similar cultures. * Reference and Research Book News, August 2005 *
