Despite decades of school reform, the achievement gap between English learners and English-proficient students has narrowed little. This book introduces a reform sustainability framework that focuses on the examination of fundamental school structures required to ensure English learner success. The framework helps school leaders to deftly navigate the reform terrain, identify patterns and trends in the deployment of reforms, and make necessary adjustments to extend, accelerate, or terminate a given reform.
