What’s New About Read! By 4th
Abstract
The Read by 4th campaign offers an affirming answer to a classic problem: should we decide “who” shall be responsible before we decide “what” needs to be done?
As a Philadelphia School Reform Commissioner, I’ve tried to bring to bear everything I’ve learned in a career in public agencies to help foster success in our schools. One of the most common situations is one in which a lot of energy is expended debating “who” should be in charge, before everyone is agreed on exactly “what” needs to be accomplished. Often, those claiming primary responsibility don’t understand how much they rely on others to be successful, because they focus entirely on their own scope of responsibility.
