1. A great leader is needed, a principal with a proven track record of success in increasing student achievement. Also, great teachers will not go to a troubled school without a great leader as principal.
2. A team needs to go to the school so a person is not alone in taking on this challenging assignment; there is strength and support in numbers.
3. Staff members who are disruptive and not supportive of reform need to be removed from the school.
4. Principals must be given the time and authority to reform the school.
5. Not all job assignments are equal in difficulty and compensation should be varied to match.
