“Why don’t all schools succeed? How did these schools turn challenges into triumphs? Probably the most common thing heard from educators in these schools is: there is no magic bullet. Rather, they have all developed complex approaches to the complicated task of educating all students. But there is one thing they do share: the deeply rooted belief that all their students not only can learn but will learn – and it is up to the adults in the building to figure out how to make sure of that.”
