As a teacher studying to be an administrator this book was very eye opening! It gives great insight regarding people on both sides of the principal's desk. What's Worth Fighting for in Your School defines the Total School and the Total Teacher and gives great advice on bringing teacher and administrator together to lead reform and make positive changes. It is a practical book with real, not lofty theoretical, suggestions for making a difference.
An inspirational read for reform-minded teachers. April 6, 2000

I found this book to be full of wonderful ideas about how one person can begin to make changes in a school. I work at a school that has had a change in administration during the past year and faculty morale is at an all time low. I can't wait to give this book to my new principal and colleagues to give them a jumpstart for the next school year. This book is realistic and points out the strengths and flaws in different models of collaboration and collegiality in schools. The authors make many excellent points about the balance we must strive to keep between respecting individualism and inspiring collaboration in our schools.
