District Readiness to Support School Turnaround: A Guide for State Education Agencies and Districts, 2nd Edition

Dallas Hambrick Hitt, William Robinson, and Daniel Player

This document provides state education agencies (SEAs) and districts with guidance about how to assess a district’s readiness to support school turnaround initiatives. First published in 2013, the guide has been updated in this edition to highlight how its approach to assessing district readiness embeds and reflects key components of Four Domains for Rapid School Improvement, a framework developed by the Center on School Turnaround (CST, 2017).
