Jeffrey S. Brooks, University of Idaho, Denise E. Armstrong, Brock
University; Ira Bogotch, Florida Atlantic University; Sandra
Harris, Lamar University; Whitney H. Sherman, Virginia Commonwealth
University; George Theoharis, Syracuse University The purpose of
this work is to broaden the scholarly dialogue in educational
leadership and to address the changing role of the American school
principal in the twenty-first century with regard to increasing
diversity in the United States. This book seeks to provide
theoretical and practical insight into the role of school
principals dealing with an ever-increasing multicultural student
population. We cover an array of issues that we believe are
critical in order for the twenty-first century school principal to
be effective and relevant. A primary inquiry that needs to be made
is: Are school leaders taking seriously the increasing social and
cultural diversity in their schools? It is the school principal who
sets the tone for the school culture and who provides the vision as
to the direction of the organization. We endeavor to help scholars
and practitioners have a better understanding of the importance of
the diversity of their students, and to give them the tools to
appropriately lead schools in ways that ensure all students,
regardless of their life circumstances and status, are provided a
school climate that promotes high academic achievement and a sense
of belonging.
