In chapters organized around six core themes, the authors lay out the essential elements of MCPSs success. They identify key lessons other districts can draw from MCPSs experience and offer a framework for applying them. A dramatic departure from business as usual, MCPS has won nationwide attention as a compelling model for tackling the achievement and opportunity issues that confront our nation as a whole.
