This qualitative study was designed to gain an in-depth
understanding of the role of the principal in successfully
improving English Language Learner (ELL) educational outcomes in
high poverty schools. It is based on interviews with five
elementary principals who were employed by Hillsboro School
District during the SET-R grant from school years 2007-2010. Three
questions guided this study. First, how do the principals promote
or implement school culture expectations and best instructional
practices in elementary schools with high ELL populations? Second,
what level of general knowledge about leadership characteristics do
the principals possess whose students performed well academically
as measured by OAKS in elementary schools with high ELL
populations? Third, what do the principals regard as an effective
approaches to comprehensively serve ELL populations? This topic
continues to be a concern for administrators given the persistent
achievement gap between ELLs and their peers at the secondary level
despite some gains in the primary grade levels.
