Publisher's Synopsis

Many school buildings across America are falling apart due to age or lack of maintenance. Others are outmoded and do not meet the need of modern educational programs and curricula. Unfortunately, school administrators and boards of education have found it increasingly difficult to obtain the funding necessary to correct facility problems in their districts. However help is at hand in the revised edition of a title originally published in 1999. Holt updates the status of school facilities in the US and provides new information on the relationship between school climate and student achievement. New to this edition is a discussion of the importance of technology in school bond issues and construction. The nuts and bolts of securing the funding for facility construction, a component of the building process usually overlooked in training administrators, are clearly outlined in chapters that begin with a look at the problem of aging schools and follow through the planning and project development phases to the bond campaign and election day.;Filled with tips, checklists and insights on the details from experienced school leaders, this is a useful guide to consult every step on the way to victory.
