This book introduces a Reform Sustainability Framework that focuses on the examination of fundamental school structures required to ensure English learner success while guiding the school leader in handling the reform terrain deftly. This reform-navigation tool identifies patterns and trends in the deployment of a reform and subsequently allows leaders to make necessary adjustments to extend, accelerate, or terminate a given reform. Bridging the English Learner Achievement Gap offers a compelling, research-grounded way for schools with an English learner population to successfully educate their students. Book Features: Highlights the leadership challenge of meeting the academic needs of English Learners ; Introduces a step-by-step process for educators at any level to ensure reform sustainability ; Examines the processes, tools, and structures needed to anchor successful school reform."--Publisher's website. 000693623 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$xStudy and teaching$$xForeign speakers. 000693623 650_0 $$aLimited English-proficient students$$zUnited States. 000693623 650_0 $$aAcademic achievement. 000693623 650_0 $$aSchool administrators$$zUnited States. 000693623 85200 $$bgen$$hPE1128.A2$$iG276$$i2012 000693623 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:693623$$pGLOBAL_SET 000693623 980__ $$aBIB 000693623 980__ $$aBOOK
