The Secrets of School Board Success: Practical Tips for Board Members offers practical suggestions for effective service on a public school board. Readers will learn how Lynn Hamilton helped garner the support of teachers, terminate collective bargaining with a union, and pass six of seven tax increase measures after a long history of failures at the polls. As a result of his 15-year career as a school board member, Hamilton is able to portray how members of a school board can foster an environment that helps to create an outstanding superintendent, which is key to a successful public school system. Board members and administrators will relate to the real-life problems that are described here, and benefit from the creative and eye-opening solutions based on Hamilton's success and experience.
Lynn Hamilton is vice president of operations for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and a former teacher at an inner-city high school. He spent 15 years on a local school board, learning firsthand the secrets of success in the trenches of public education.
