Bill Fibkins captures the boiling over frustration of teachers everywhere with his excellent roadmap to education reform. His call for teacher leaders to lead the way is a common sense solution to stop the endless cycle of reform failures. Fibkin's plan echoes the quality reforms of gurus like Deming - who revolutionized manufacturing by asking workers how to improve the manufacturing process. Unfortunately, school reform has failed, in large part, because teaching professionals have been inexplicably excluded from the decision making process. Fibkins' clarion call for teacher participation seeks to sensibly reform the reform movement by simply asking teachers how to improve their profession. It is about time. --Debra Ciamacca
