In 1863, the first mining town, Wickenburg, was established in what would become Maricopa County, when it was created from parts of Pima, Yuma, Mohave, and Yavapai Counties on February 12, 1871. Spanish Franciscan missionary Francisco Garces claimed the name “Maricopa” came from the Pima word for the Pipatsje, a Yuman tribe from the Gulf of California that migrated to Arizona’s central valley long ago. Ten years after Maricopa County was established, Jack Swillings’s original settlement had begun its evolution into the ever-expanding city of Phoenix. By the turn of the 20th century, Maricopa County was no longer just a dusty settlement for a few hundred sturdy souls. Its rich agricultural districts had grown in scope and breadth, since its irrigation systems were fed by the Salt and Verde Rivers impounded in Roosevelt, Apache, and Canyon Lakes. Phoenix led the explosive growth of Maricopa County and Arizona, and by 1920 had become a dynamic, vibrant state capital. Today Maricopa County is the state’s major economic engine and home to the fifth-largest city in America.

Improve the overall performance of your school with no-nonsense advice to allow you the confidence to implement successful behavioral management structures within the school environment. Drawing on his years of experience, Jeremy Rowe shares the most effective methods of classroom management, enabling teachers to ensure that pupils receive the best education.Sorting Out Behavior is the view from the head teacher’s chair when it comes to getting behaviour right across the whole school.If you want to get the public, the papers and politicians hot under the collar you only need mention classroom behaviour’. It’s a subject everyone has an opinion on  and it’s rarely positive. For every media-fuelled horror story of disruptive behaviour there is a knee-jerk, sack the teachers, blame the parents, get the troops in response which often makes things worse when it comes to actually engaging children in learning. This book is not only about effective behaviour strategies that genuinely work but it is also special as it has been written by a practising head teacher, drawing on that unique perspective of whole school behaviour. Full of helpful, practical, do-able tips and ideas it is relevant for any teacher, manager or leader in all sorts of schools.I strongly recommend this extremely useful and practical guide, which demonstrates that effective behaviour management is about clarity, transparency, consistency and a set of manageable policies and procedures which are kept under constant review. Drawing on the author’s vast, first-hand experience, it is a source of common sense and practical pointers which would enable all school staff from trainees to experienced school leaders to review their behaviour policies, practices and procedures.”Brian Lightman, General Secretary, Association of School and College LeadersThank you to Jeremy Rowe for providing a plain English, common sense, easy to read guide about behaviour. Perhaps more importantly, he reminds us that children aren’t criminals and that most schools are calm, productive, orderly places that are far removed from the image so often portrayed in the media. We need to hear that message more often.”Fiona Millar, Guardian ColumnistJeremy Rowe combines his twenty plus years of teaching experience with traditional values and a realistic perspective to produce the effective method of management that has led him to become a successful head teacher and public speaker.
