Exceptional reading for a practical, effective approach to school leadership:

 


School Principals report increased levels of stress and decreased levels of support. (OCED, “School Leaders: Changing Roles and Impact”, 2003)

Organizational leadership best practices are not often implemented in schools. (CEPA, “Effective Instructional Time Use”, 2013)

Students are increasingly graduating from high school without the skills they need to be successful in college or careers. (TNTP, “The Opportunity Myth, 2018)

There is a national teacher shortage, particularly in high-needs classrooms/contents, as the profession becomes increasingly complex and under-supported. (Learning Policy Institute, “Understanding Teacher Shortages: 2018 Update”, 2018)

School leaders have a significant impact on student achievement and teacher retention (NASSP and NAESP, Leadership Matters”, 2013)
