Synopsis

Some Children Left Behind advances the belief that schools must change their focus in order to achieve desired results. When educators focus on teaching a work ethic, they act upon the central truth that acquiring an education requires effort by the learner, a concept that should be a game changer in school reform. Understanding that education cannot be done to students, nor can it be done for them, schools must be encouraged to teach that success is a product of hard work, both in school and in life. Some Children Left Behind should be required reading for all school board members and school superintendents. This book offers a clear alternative for school leaders who believe that schools can get desired results by getting better at executing the same old tired strategies. Teaching a work ethic to students allows student success without an infusion of new money or changes in education regulations.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

This book sprang from the observations and thoughts of a crochety old educator who has seen trends in education come and go. The author made no attempt to be politically correct in the belief that it is a trend that should go. Tired of seeing students leave school ill-prepared for success in life, he addresses the central truth that students must work in order to become educated. Equipping students with a work ethic and the rock solid belief that it will open the doors to success can transform not only our schools, but also our country. If our children will not work, little else will work for them. Fred Zachary is a product of a small, rural public school district in Pittsburg, Texas. He earned a bachelors degree from Stephen F. Austin State University and his masters degree and doctorate from Texas A&M University, Commerce. He has been an educator since 1967.
