Running a school is no big deal, right? If you need help starting or running or even saving a school, this book is full the wisdom and real-world experience that will benefit you enormously.

Look Inside the Book

If administrators aim to graduate young men and women who think clearly, articulate persuasively, and evaluate everything in the light of the Scriptures, then they cannot afford to let current educational culture dictate school policies. But, at the same time, the array of issues facing high school administrators and school boards is staggering, and not something to undertake without guidance. Dr. Larry Stephenson has more than twenty-five years of experience in school administration, and his book, The Administrator's Handbook for Christian Schools, is a comprehensive guide to giving kids an academically rigorous and wholeheartedly Christian education.

Dr. Stephenson addresses all the questions that have to be answered, both in theory (school culture, teaching methods, etc.) and practice (emergencies, dress codes, hiring and firing, and so on). With helpful appendices of templates for all kinds of school forms, The Administrator's Handbook gives you the information you need to navigate these perennial issues in the life of a school: Admissions, Discipline, Evaluations, Curriculum, Scope and Sequence, Activities, Athletics, AP Courses, College Guidance, GPAs, Honors Classes, Facilities, Capital Campaigns, Public Relation, Budget, Salaries, and much more!

ESSENTIAL for all parents and educators to read
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
As an elementary educator for the last fifteen years, I finally found a book that put all the frustration and wondering of why kids come to school struggling, drained, and overwhelmed. Borba states, "We are creating strivers, not thinkers, produced to be test-takers while missing the opportunity to be people." She points out that we are all running on empty. In her book, she discusses the 7 core strengths that kids need in order to shine. Thrivers not only provides readers with current research, but it has practical and easy tips that both parents and educators can do to help foster a new generation of thrivers and not strivers. If you are worried about your children's mental health, depression, anxiety, and stress, you must read this book. This book comes at a time when we all must work together to move the pendulum of what achievement looks like in 2021 and reimagine education for our youth, tweens, teens, and young adults. Truly, this book has been life-changing.

Insightful, wise and practical!
Format: Hardcover
A highly readable mix of practical strategies, engaging anecdotes and research-based insights, Thrivers underscores the importance of our kids' innate character strengths for their success and happiness. I found this book perfectly timed, given all the pandemic-related stress our teens have had on top of everything else! Borba’s advice on recognizing and nurturing what really matters makes this book a parenting must-have (and I’ve read plenty of them).

Helpful pinpointing which traits to focus on
Format: Hardcover
I loved the format of the book, how are you take a diagnostic test and then read the sections that pertain to the character traits that you want to strengthen in your child. But when I read the chapters, I was disappointed. I was hoping for new information. If I had never read a book on how to support my child’s development and education, I would have been delighted.
