Delivering on the Promise is the compelling story of how a team of visionary educators put their careers on the line to turn the traditional education system inside out and create a dramatically different approach to schooling that would serve every child?not just children with dedicated parents or systems with tremendous financial resources
It is a story about people who did not simply talk about education reform; they actually did it. The result is the Re-Inventing Schools Coalition (RISC) Approach to Schooling, a new paradigm in education that can be replicated anywhere, by anyone, for any student, under any set of circumstances. The RISC Approach to Schooling is a standards- and performance-based system that has led to remarkable gains in student achievement. This system, which represents a literal reinvention of what schooling looks like, has the potential to impact education on a global level and help schools realize unprecedented levels of success for all students.
