After he was sworn in as Superintendent of Public Instruction in January 2011, Tom Torlakson “convened a 59-member Transition Advisory Team including parents, teachers, classified staff, administrators, superintendents, school board members, business and union leaders, higher education and nonprofit representatives.” He charged the team with what amounts to the development of a strategic plan for education in California in a time of momentous change.

The team met as a whole three times and its members “participated in one of eight policy-working teams focused upon particular issues.” Their report was made available on the California Department of Education website as “A Blueprint for Great Schools.”
