註釋Creating and Sustaining A Freshman Academy: The Palmetto High Model is a must read for school and district administrators who are dealing with transitional issues among their ninth grade students, such as scheduling, academics, behavior, and attendance. The intent of this book is to give a mental and physical model that identifies our thinking and work to address our incoming freshman and the challenges they faced. It is also a must read for visionary leaders in administration, in the seat of school board members, or perhaps those who serve on school improvement councils or advisory boards. I encourage you to consider the information presented, think about how that information could be used in your school/district, and "break ranks" with tradition and implement a version of our freshman academy concept that best suits the needs of your students and community. Information is included to answer the questions on why to create a freshman academy, the mental model we used to put all the pieces together, information and data on how we "progress monitored", and most importantly a chapter dedicated to the teacher voice so you the reader, can experience first-hand how they feel about this concept in their own words. I hope this book inspires you to do what is best for your students and to create solutions that transform their lives as well as the culture of the schools who have the courage to do things differently.
