The Comer School Development Program (SDP) is a child-centered, data-driven, whole-school change process. It was designed by James P. Comer, MD, to recreate a caring, nurturing, and challenging learning community, in which adults work collaboratively to address children's psychosocial and academic development. The Comer SDP has been effective in enhancing the climate in schools and in improving students' psychological, social, and academic performance.
