In School Improvement for All: A How-To Guide for Doing the Right Work, authors Sharon V. Kramer and Sarah Schuhl present a how-to guide for implementing Professional Learning Community at Work (PLC) practices. They assert that real, sustained school improvement only happens when teachers and administrators collectively center their powers on ensuring all students learn at high levels.
