Synopsis
Taking a "reality-based" approach, this book provides a solid base for the socio/political, legal, and theoretical contexts for school leadership. It recognizes that as the person who has the day-to-day responsibility of school operation and student learning, the principal must have a foundation in instructional organization, evaluation and assessment, and the business/facilities dimensions of the job. Unlike other texts in the field, this book provides in-depth coverage of the real issues that permeate today's schools such as inclusion, violence, teen pregnancy, and students with disabilities.

From the Back Cover
Offers school principals a “reality-based” approach to the socio/political, legal, and theoretical contexts of contemporary school leadership. Reflects the changing perspective of what the contemporary principal's main job is -- a leader who has the day-to-day responsibility of school operation and student learning and who must be equally adept at instructional organization, evaluation and assessment, and the business/facilities dimensions of the job. Explores, in depth, the real issues that permeate today's schools (e.g., inclusion, violence, teen pregnancy, and students with disabilities). Presents case studies and examples of actual problems principals encounter. Lists items which can easily be converted into a checksheet regarding a program or a process. Includes current views of organization and leadership, and addresses emerging proficiencies now being adopted by many professional standards boards. For school principals who must keep abreast of the changing nature of today's educational environment -- and their responsibilities in relation to it.
