Les Potter, academic chair and associate professor of the College of Education, has co-authored the second edition of “Creating a Culture for High-Performing Schools: A comprehensive approach to school reform, dropout prevention and bully behavior.” Published by Rowman & Littlefield and written for K-12 educators, the book covers best practices in improving student achievement, student and teacher morale and parental support by establishing a school culture where faculty and students trust and care about each other.
The book is co-authored by Clete Bulach, a former Ohio school superintendent and college professor, and Fred Lunenburg, a longtime teacher, principal and school superintendent who currently is the Jimmy N. Merchant Professor of Education and Senior Research Fellow at the Center for Research and Doctoral Studies in Educational Leadership at Sam Houston State University.

His work on the book took a practical approach stemming from his experience as a secondary school principal at seven schools in four states. He has been recognized in several of those states for his contributions to education.
