Many educational organizations have seen dramatic improvements in overall performance through the use of quality management principles. These schools have seen higher scores from students, more enthusiasm from parents, and increased loyalty from teachers. Despite these amazing results, many more schools are hesitant to use these unfamiliar and often difficult methods without proof of their effectiveness. This is the goal of Successful Applications of Quality Systems in K–12 Schools, which is a collaboration of a variety of educational experts, each demonstrating the remarkable successes they have seen by implementing quality principles in their schools and school districts. The book presents eight examples of quality management systems operating in eight different K - 12 school settings, with each chapter emphasizing one of the eight internationally accepted quality management principles. Since the book was written by the same people it is intended for - superintendents, principals, curriculum supervisors, and teachers – the information is clear and easy to understand. The principles explained are applied by schools using the criteria and standards of the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, Koalaty Kid Self-Assessment Guide to Performance Excellence, and ISO 9000 family of Quality Management System Standards.
