A high reliability school, by definition, monitors the effectiveness of critical factors within the system and immediately takes action to contain the negative effects of any errors that occur. As early as 1995, Sam Stringfield called for the development of high reliability schools. He and his colleagues later described schools that operate as high reliability organizations (Stringfield, Reynolds, & Schaffer, 2008, 2012). These schools have several things in common, including high, clear, shared goals; real-time, understandable, comprehensive data systems; collaborative environments; flexibility; formalized operating procedures; a focus on best practices and expertise over seniority; rigorous teacher performance evaluations; and clean, well-functioning campuses.

To implement this type of a high reliability perspective in schools, two elements are necessary: (1) a hierarchy of school factors and (2) leading and lagging indicators.
