This book makes an important contribution because it not only focuses on academic importance, but it also focuses on creating an environment in the school where parents and students feel supported and nurtured. It reemphasizes that schools should be the heart and soul of the community. We are all related. -- Robert Bartman, Superintendent and former Missouri Commissioner of Education Read this book. It’s a good lesson for all of us. -- Todd Whitaker, author of What Great Principals Do Differently: Fifteen Things that Matter Most What Kelly Wachel has done is to clearly emphasize through results the power of communication and engagement in our schools that leads to a cohesive climate leading to student-centered achievement. I often say that a school communication leader’s “raison d’etre” is to improve teaching and learning. Follow the approach and insight in this practical book, and you too will become a force in your entire school community for teaching and learning. It does not get any better than that! -- Rich Bagin, executive director, National School Public Relations Association, Rockville, Maryland
