In Recalibrate the Culture, author Jimmy Casas examines the challenges that teachers, leaders, and schools face and shares his assessment on what makes the difference in the overall culture of a school - why do some continue to show positive results while others continue to struggle to maintain a healthy learning environment for all students and staff? This book provides the necessary strategies and tools to assist all teachers, principals, and district office administrators in exploring our inner selves to understand the role we each play in how we can impact the climate and culture of an entire campus when we are strategic and aligned in our practices. The classroom, building, and district levels must see themselves as one and must be intentional in replicating the processes, protocols, and frameworks provided in this book to recalibrate and bring about system-wide change and cultivate a healthier culture.

Seven years ago, Jimmy Casas published Culturize, a Washington Post best-seller designed to help educators envision their culture through the four core principles of being a Champion for Students, Expecting Excellence, Carrying the Banner, and being a Merchant of Hope. Now, Casas has teamed with Cale Birk to write Words on the Wall: Culturizing Your Classroom For Observable Impact, the highly anticipated sequel to Culturize that helps teachers and leaders go deeper to create a high-resolution picture of what it looks like and leads to when we truly Culturize our classrooms and schools. Drawing on real-life stories, engaging narratives, thought-provoking questions, and practical research, Jimmy and Cale guide readers through a process to bring the four core principles of Culturize to life. Words on the Wall serves as a roadmap for moving beyond the posters, billboards, slogans, and acronyms that adorn our walls to concrete actions educators can take to make observable impacts in classrooms and throughout schools.
