“This book makes leadership a concrete, identifiable, and learnable goal for any teacher. Furthermore, it provides resources to help nurture and leverage the leadership in one’s staff or even in oneself. Teacher leadership is necessary on every campus and in every district." Heather Wolpert-Gawron, Middle School Teacher & Author, Writing Behind Every Door Los Angeles, CA "Rather than leadership being held in the office of an administrator, this book shows how more impactful leadership actually resides in the classrooms among the teachers. Levin and Schrum lay out a clear path why teacher leadership is truly the leadership we need in our schools and how to get there." Josh Stumpenhorst, Teacher, 2012 Illinois Teacher of the Year Lincoln Junior High School, Naperville, IL
