The Comer Program: Changing School Culture.
Squires, David A.; Kranyik, Robert D.
Educational Leadership, v53 n4 p29-32 Dec-Jan 1995-96
Site-management designs generally fail to establish structures and processes that help school communities work through cultural change. The Comer School Development Program succeeds because it supports a change in school culture and focuses on children's development, not just their speech, language, and intellectual capabilities. Lessons from Dallas schools are discussed. (12 references) (MLH)
