SHAPING THE FUTURE OF YOUR SCHOOL SYSTEM

Shaping your district’s future must be guided by the knowledge that good school districts must move toward higher levels of performance. There are many good school systems in the United States. At the dawn of the twenty-first century, however, good is not good enough to bring our children to the knowledge they have a right to and with which they will bring us and themselves into the future. Not only is good not good enough, but as Collins (2001) says,

Good is the enemy of great. And that is one of the reasons why we have so little that becomes great. We don’t have great schools, principally because we have good schools. We don’t have great government, principally because we have good government. Few people attain great lives, in large part because it is just so easy to settle for a good life. The vast majority of companies never become great, precisely because the vast majority become quite good—and that is their main problem. (p. 1)
