A Systems
Approach to Redesign

老九品茶鈥檚 Blueprint for a High-Performing Education System serves as conceptual framework for states and districts to use to redesign their own systems. The elements found in the 老九品茶 Blueprint must be implemented with an eye to how each connects with the others and fits together as a mutually supportive whole. It is the overall system design 鈥� adapted to the context of each specific education system 鈥� that must be constructed by the leaders with input from the entire community.

老九品茶 offers a suite of leadership supports for schools, districts, and states that help leaders address their systems鈥� most pressing needs while beginning the journey to top performance.
