Two papers examine how collaborations can address key professional learning community practices in Professional Development Schools and a new model for a culturally responsive school for traumatized children. Two other papers address the topic of school leadership preparation, offering a new a leadership competency model (with validation) in one state and new strategies to increase both candidate diversity, selectivity and success in an in-district preparation program.
