To those of you who are accessing my website for the first time.
WELCOME!
I post blogs every week. There are over 1,200 blogs on this website dealing with dropout prevention, bullying, school violence, and the implications of Covid on the learning process. As schools reopen to in-person education, we will have to deal with problems we have never faced before.

I am a practitioner as well as a writer. I started as a high school classroom teacher, became a school counselor and finally a high school administrator in a Title1 High School where I developed 15 Effective Strategies which successfully lowered the school’s dropout rate, sent over 70% of our first-generation high school graduates to post-secondary school, and increased family engagement by over 70% in 9 months. The strategies have been recognized as Effective Strategies by the National Dropout Prevention Center at Clemson University, the Educational Goals Panel, Auburn University the National Alternative Education Association, the New York Times, Fortune Magazine and BusinessWeek. They can be found on this website.
I have written 13 books deal with dropout prevention. The last, “Who Will Teach The Children?” Recruiting, Retaining and Refreshing Highly Effective Educators” addresses the teacher exodus. It is available through Amazon.
I am currently working on a book entitled, “School Violence Prevention: A Guide for School Leaders, Teachers, Counselors, Parents, and Students” which will be available before the new year.
