About this organization
Mission
The Rensselaerville Institute, called in the Wall Street Journal, 'the think tank with muddy boots,' defines, achieves, and verifies improvements in people's lives. Our mission is to: Support foundations, governments and individual donors to invest in social programs with the same rigor as investors seeking financial returns with investor programs. Show nonprofit and community organizations how to set and track targets to achieve significant gains for those served with implementor programs. Be the first to take our own advice, by putting our tools and approaches into full use as in our Signature program: School Turnaround, which dramatically improves low performing schools and the emerging program, Community Sparkplugs, which helps individuals achieve great results. Support clients on site or in Rensselaerville at our residential learning center where 10,000 people a year attend meetings that matter at The Meeting Center.
About
School Turnaround is an intensive intervention and leadership development initiative that helps principals turn around failing or underperforming schools. The program is designed specifically for schools and districts where someone in power perceives a current failure that requires urgent intervention. While most educational initiatives geared toward demonstrating student achievement take place over a long time period, School Turnaround is proven to bring about urgency and time-compressed change in one year.
