A volume in Research and Theory in Educational Administration
Series Editors: Wayne K. Hoy, The Ohio State University and Michael
DiPaola, The College of William and Mary Improving Schools: Studies
in Leadership and Culture is the seventh in a series on research
and theory dedicated to advancing our understanding of schools
through empirical study and theoretical analysis. This book is
organized around two broad concepts-leadership and culture, which
have important implications for improving schools. The book begins
with an analysis of the saliency of trust in the culture of
schools. In the first chapter, Patrick Forsyth's review of the
consequences of school trust sets the tone for seeking and
developing school cultures that enhance high academic performance
of students. The investigation of school trust is traced over
several decades at four research universities as scholars at each
institution conceptualized, refined, and examined the consequences
of school trust. It seems fair to conclude that a school culture
that is anchored in values and norms of faculty trusting students
and parents facilitates high academic achievement and positive
outcomes.
