This book outlines how administrators in our school system can move
from managerial efforts to leadership functions. Identifying
taxpayers as the school systems’ foremost client presents leaders
with the critical perspective for ensuring accountability.
Government is the taxpayers’ servant and act as managers of
educational funding and programs, and is supported by
administrators working in schools, districts and regional offices.
A key understanding is that school is a student’s place of work,
and current processes for evaluating and reporting their progress
identifies them as the most accountable workers in our culture.
Taxpayers are better served when educators and government are held
accountable by similar assessment processes. Accountability is
enhanced when power for selecting teachers and schools is shifted
from administrators to parents, and quantifiable information
provides the basis for these decisions. Ensuring that students have
their learning assessed consistently guarantees fairness to
students and provides critical information for parents and
taxpayers. Proven leadership strategies for ensuring accountability
and superior levels of performance are presented for each
administrative level.
