ABSTRACT

Sometimes trying to implement a productive school change, regardless of whether the change is at the procedural, structural, or cultural level, is a little like putting together a jigsaw puzzle without having the benefit of the picture on the box cover. You have all of the pieces that you need, and you know that the straight pieces will build the outside border, you just aren’t sure what it will look like when you’re done. It’s sometimes just not worth the hassle to figure it all out.
