As a former principal and now district administrator, I use these ideas each day to help schools leverage their resources in strategic and creative ways to meet students' needs."</em>--Mary Nash, Assistant Superintendent (1/10/2008 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><em>"Too often, educators think that the greatest resource we can get is more funding to hire more staff. This book shows that a lot can be done by re-examining the current use of our resources."</em>--Sue Belish, Superintendent (11/13/2007 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><em>A powerful new lens for looking at school resources by fundamentally changing the question from ′How much money do schools need to succeed?′ to ′How well are resources being used to ensure student success?′ The careful review of research and the practical case studies from the authors′ extensive experience provide practitioners, administrators, and school developers with a deep understanding of effective resource use and the tools to turn that knowledge into an strategy that works for kids."</em>--Richard Murnane, Economist and Professor (1/10/2008 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><em>This book made me rethink how to spend in a more creative manner that allows all students to benefit. The resource worksheets are very helpful for both the veteran and rookie administrator working to prioritize and re-evaluate effective means of spending limited funding."</em>--Dana Salles Trevethan, Principal (11/13/2007 12:00:00 AM)<br>
