Join us for this episode where we discuss who really might be to blame for low test scores. Dr Cletus Bulach is an expert on this issue and joins The Deciding Factor to go over this. There are a lot of things that can be learned here and even our hosts differ on their opinions. You might be even surprised as to how leadership styles play a role in this topic as well. Stay tuned because you just might learn a thing or two. Also what are your thoughts on this topic? Are the kids to blame, the schools, or maybe it is something else that is the problem? Better yet let's keep talking more about this.

Bio:
Dr. Cletus R. Bulach is a retired Ohio school superintendent and associate professor emeritus at the University of West Georgia.  He is the author of numerous articles in educational journals and is co-author of the two books: School Climate and Culture Vis-à-vis Student Learning: Keys to Collaborative Problem Solving and Responsibility. The second book is Enhancing A High Performing School Culture and Climate: New Insights for Improving Schools. The second book focuses on human relations problems that interfere with creating a positive school culture and climate: Poor interpersonal communications and inability to cope with conflict.

If you would like to follow or get in touch with Dr. Bulach:
His website is www.westga.edu/~cbulach.
