Once the direction or vision for a school is decided, communication
and strong relationships are the keys to success when implementing
change. High Performing Schools in the Florida School Report’s
Best Practices Study provide testimony to the open and cooperative
dialogue between educational leaders, a committed faculty,
and engaged parents (as equal stakeholders) along with strong
