"At last, a comprehensive guide to the Common Core State Standards inclusive of both the regular education and special needs student populations! Clear and concise, this book offers researched-based tips for educational leaders that will ensure success for all learners."

--Lisa Carter, international keynote speaker, educational consultant, and author

"A School Leader’s Guide to Implementing the Common Core provides excellent guidance and support to leaders using research-based strategies that apply to a variety of stakeholders. While the content is designed around the Common Core State Standards, the authors have created an impressive resource that also benefits education leaders of non-adopting states. This book provides leaders with tools and tips to engage teachers, parents, and communities in positively shifting the instructional practices to a framework that promotes college and career readiness."

--Ann W. Linson, Superintendent, East Noble School Corporation, IN
