A School as a Living Entity

A School as a Living Entity

Rea Taylor Gill
The Growth and Development of a School as a Living Entity
In what way can a school be seen as a living entity? When a school's operating systems and organizational structure are intentionally differentiated based on Threefold principles the school becomes a dynamic, effective and vibrant entity. In this thorough and clearly written book, the author explains how the people who serve in a cultural organization like a school can guide its healthy development. The foreword is written by Torin Finser.
