The Principalship

The elements which contributed to the text's past success, while adding coverage of principalship in sitebased situations, expanding the discussion of organizational culture, and providing thoughtful discussion of challenging societal issues are still contained in this text. This text encompasses every aspect of the principal's job, from a foundation in administration, through principles and details of operations, to current concerns and issues relevant to organization and evaluation. It examines recent initiatives toward excellence in our schools, and suggests ways in which principals can help reach this goal. Plus, it discusses problems and situations identified by principals as particularly challenging for them--and proposes sensible, workable solutions!
