A Guide for Shaping Your School's Culture In this thoroughly revised and updated edition of their classic book, Shaping School Culture, Terrence Deal and Kent Peterson address the latest thinking on organizational culture and change and offer new ideas and strategies on how stories, rituals, traditions, and other cultural practices can be used to create positive, caring, and purposeful schools. This new edition gives expanded attention to the important symbolic roles of school leaders, including practical suggestions on how leaders can balance cultural goals and values against accountability demands, and features new and powerful case examples throughout. Most important, the authors show how school leaders can transform negative and toxic cultures so that trust, commitment, and sense of unity can prevail. Praise for Shaping School Culture "For those seeking enduring change that is measured in generations rather than months, and to create a legacy rather than a headline, then Shaping School Culture is your guide." Dr. Douglas B. Reeves, founder, The Leadership and Learning Center, Englewood, CO "Deal and Peterson combine exquisite language, vibrant stories, and sage advice to support school leaders in embracing the paradoxical nature of their work. A 'must read' for all school leaders." Pam Robbins, educational consultant and author "Once again, the authors have presented practitioners, researchers, professional developers, school coaches, and others with a tremendous resource for renovating and reinvigorating schools."

In the bustling landscape of education, there exists a realm where greatness thrives—a place where students flourish, teachers are empowered, and a vibrant community of learners thrives. Welcome to the heart of an incredible school culture. In these pages, we embark on a journey to explore the essential elements that transform ordinary schools into extraordinary hubs of learning and growth. It's a journey guided by a simple yet profound truth: that the strength of a school lies not only in its academic achievements but also in the richness of its culture. Imagine a school where values aren't just words on a poster but guiding principles that shape every interaction and decision. Picture classrooms buzzing with excitement, where students are not just passive recipients of knowledge but active participants in their own learning journey. Envision a staff united by a shared vision, where collaboration and innovation are the norm rather than the exception. Building an incredible school culture is no small feat—it requires dedication, intentionality, and a deep commitment to the well-being and success of every member of the community. It's about creating an environment where students feel safe, supported, and valued, where teachers are empowered to unleash their full potential, and where parents and community members are partners in the educational process. In these pages, we'll delve into the strategies and practices that lay the foundation for a thriving school culture. From clarifying and communicating values to promoting inclusivity and equity, from fostering strong relationships to celebrating achievements, each chapter will offer insights, practical tips, and real-life examples to inspire and guide you on your own journey of cultural transformation. Whether you're a school leader seeking to cultivate a positive learning environment, a teacher eager to create a classroom where every student can succeed, or a parent invested in the educational experience of your child, this book is for you. Together, let's embark on a quest to cultivate excellence and build an incredible school culture—one that inspires, empowers, and transforms lives.

The author gives us a vision of educational reform that transcends standards, curriculum, and instructional strategies. He argues for a paradigm shift-a schoolwide embrace of an "ethic of excellence" and with a passion for quality describes what's possible when teachers, students, and parents commit to nothing less than the best. The author tells exactly how this can be done, from the blackboard to the blacktop to the school boardroom.

In their follow-up to School Culture Recharged and the best-selling School Culture Rewired, Steve Gruenert and Todd Whitaker go deep into the roots of culture change and explore how school leaders can positively shift their cultures in a sustainable way. Drawing from the authors' extensive experience and research, Committing to the Culture - Unpacks questions around the nature of culture, including the importance of vision and climate and how the tension between the past and the future can keep a culture stagnant. - Explains how toxic cultures come about, why they can be so resistant to lasting change, and how not to change those cultures. - Describes how to build a positive culture based on trust, collaboration, and commitment rather than fear, competition, and compliance. - Offers advice to help leaders ensure that positive change endures, withstanding fads, toxic mindsets, and other threats. The authors provide real-world scenarios to illustrate how their ideas and approaches work in practice. Leaders will gain profound insight into how to create meaningful change, with the goal not just to "transform" their school but also to get all members of the school community to commit to culture change—and make sure that change sticks.
