Leader’s Guide to Standards:
A Blueprint for Educational Equity and Excellence

Douglas B. Reeves / 2002
“This book will interest both those who want practical guidance for meeting standards and those who oppose current initiatives." –Choice

Leader's Guide to Standards is a landmark book that shows how to build a comprehensive accountability system for standards-based reform. Reeves offers practical recommendations for assessing and nurturing teacher performance, setting up balanced assessment and accountability policies, and making the case for standards to the public. In addition, the book addresses the vital role that policymakers from the local school board to state and national leaders play in the successful implementation of education standards.
