  6. “School districts should not try to simply build a learning community that has as many definitions as there are people defining it. The emphasis should be on restructuring how people work together. That’s what ultimately has an effect on the classroom.” - Nelda Cambron-McCabe (The School Administrator, May 2003, p.8)
