Publisher's Synopsis
If you want to go FAST Go ALONE. If you want to go FAR Go TOGETHER. African Proverb The Briscoe Elementary School Success Story is a walk through a high poverty (97%) school where administrators and teachers believe that a child's zip code should not dictate his or her academic success. Educators and aspiring educators at all levels should read this book. It provides a road map that demonstrates unequivocally what dedication, mastery teaching, high expectations, empathy and love can do for students, parents and staff. The Briscoe family of administrators, teachers and ancillary personnel show what can happen when a caring family of professionals has a "No Excuses" philosophy. The results of this belief is that every child becomes a child of promise.
