""In my district, the practices revealed in this book have already made a positive impact on our future leaders and, more importantly, on our students. The community engagement strategies embedded in the ‘Community Learning Exchange’ brand of teaching, learning, and leading are dynamic, authentic, and revolutionary. This author team has provided the tools to support our community and district for the betterment of all!"" --Mark Eads, Superintendent of San Marcos CISD, USA ""Readers will enjoy this unique look at how ‘Community Learning Exchanges’ change the way in which families, schools, and communities work together to create positive outcomes for their children. The authors bring forth the value of transformational leadership and highlight the importance of ‘telling stories’ to convey community change. They dare readers to listen deeply to and learn from stories of people and places, in order to truly understand the solutions waiting to be discovered, together."" --Carla D.
