Lamenting what he saw as a lack of urgency around improving schools, Erroll B. Davis, the former superintendent of Atlanta Public Schools said, “While some people are looking at the calendar; I’m looking at my watch.” (2013)
Davis was right; we need a greater sense of urgency around improving our schools. And, we need it now. How a leader responds to the challenge of improving their school ranges from complacency on one end of the continuum to panic on the other, but in between complacency and panic lies the power of urgent leadership.
