Some Children Left Behind: Why Student Effort Matters

By Fred M. Zachary

Some Children Left Behind advances the belief that schools must change their focus in order to achieve desired results. When educators focus on teaching a work ethic, they act upon the central truth that acquiring an education requires effort by the learner, a concept that should be a game changer in school reform. Understanding that education cannot be done to students, nor can it be done for them, schools must be encouraged to teach that success is a product of hard work, both in school and in life. Some Children Left Behind should be required reading for all school board members and school superintendents. This book offers a clear alternative for school leaders who believe that schools can get desired results by getting better at executing the same old tired strategies. Teaching a work ethic to students allows student success without an infusion of new money or changes in education regulations.
