"""Informative and inspiring; real and refreshing, Amen Rahh has provided us with the definitive book on leadership. If you are a leader in search of a comprehensive work on how to create a revolution in education, search no more. Principal Rahh offers practical strategies, culturally responsive approaches and revolutionary principles that every educator needs to take to heart if you believe in the potential and promise of our youth. A must read for those who have a no-excuses, no-nonsense mindset on getting schools right. Every educator needs this book."" -Dr. Tyrone C. Howard, Ph.D. UCLA, Director, Center for the Transformation of Schools Revolutionary School Culture: The 6 Principles of Unlocking Your Schools Hidden Treasure is what I consider to be an ""on time"" book. It has been my contention for the past thirty-three years that I have been in education that school and classroom culture are everything. Principal Rahh understands this clearly and has written a book which I feel strongly is going to make a significant impact for its readers immediately. Principal Rahh practices what he preaches. His thoughts around school culture are not reduced to theory. He's sharing what he accomplished in a school that he built in an urban community replete with the normal challenges that children face in urban environments. I anticipate that Revolutionary School Culture will revolutionize the culture of a plethora of schools across the U.S. as the principles of this book revolutionized the culture of Principal Rahh's school. -Principal Baruti Kafele Educator, Speaker, Author ""If you see yourself as a Revolutionary Educator, this book is for you. If you aren't sure if you see yourself as a Revolutionary Educator, but it is something you are striving for, this book is for you. If you know that something in your school needs to change in order to make it a space where every voice feels valued, seen, and heard, then this book is for you. This book will guide you through practices in which you can engage, to make revolutionary education a reality at your school. This book matters because we have hundreds of schools that require Revolutionary Educators."" -Dr. Cynthia Gonzalez, Ed.D., UCLA, High School Principal ""There are far and few books out there where you feel the passion and drive of the author from page one. With the simple words, LET'S BOOM, Principal Rahh cements his message that all students deserve an experience at school that draws upon their culture, identity, and individuality. Not only does Rahh draw upon scholarly research, but he brings in his personal stories of building a revolutionary school that will inspire and offer a blueprint for others to follow. The simple steps he takes and lays out mixed with the real talk on social justice that is desperately needed in every school will leave you rejuvenated for your career and inspired to make positive change for your students."" - Adam Dovico ""In Revolutionary School Culture, Principal Rahh delivers truth in a unique way that is both powerful and digestible. As our world continues to transition and adapt, we need leaders who are progressive about learning strategies that will help increase the self-efficacy of every child we will encounter. This book will allow you to expand your thought process as we continue to elevate in education."" - Michael Bonner, Teacher at the Ron Clark Academy, Author,"
