Great on Their Behalf: Why School Boards Fail, How Yours Can Become Effective by AJ Crabill is a practical education governance book for school board members, superintendents, district leaders, and civic stakeholders. Published by Lioncrest Publishing in 2023, it addresses a problem Crabill views as central to public education: many school boards devote substantial time to adult concerns, political conflict, operations, and procedural activity while giving insufficient disciplined attention to student learning. Drawing on his work with school systems and governance training, Crabill argues that boards become effective when they define success through measurable student outcomes and then adjust their own behavior to support those outcomes. The book is not a general education reform manifesto. It is a governance manual focused on what elected or appointed boards can control: priorities, monitoring, community listening, superintendent accountability, and the habits of board conduct. Its purpose is to help boards move from activity and intention to coherent oversight in service of students.
