With dwindling funds and resources, tougher state and federal
standards, and fatigue from more regulations and testing, many
school administrators are giving up _or 'crashing' and leaving
their posts. This book examines the process of preparing,
encouraging, and retaining quality leaders at the school and
district levels. Beginning with a chapter outlining six steps of
critical organizational supports, subsequent chapters address
factors in preparing administrator candidates effectively;
improving novice teacher retention through principal support and
mentoring; utilizing more fully mid-career teachers who come to
schools having worked outside of education; the role of isolation
in new principals' sense of efficacy; research findings about
assistant superintendents about job satisfaction, efficacy, and
ambitions for promotion; and finally, contemporary leadership
challenges existing at the superintendent level. Concluding with
thoughts about administrator accountability, the various chapters
offer contemporary views on the preparation, utilization, and
retention of school administrators throughout the life cycle. The
chapters provide needed insight into what should and must be done
to grow the best leaders for US schools.
