Starting out as a principal is a lot like starting out as a new
teacher. You feel alone. You need guidance. And you have to provide
leadership even when you don't feel sure of yourself. You also make
mistakes. In Fall Down, Stand Up: Advice for Aspiring Principals,
Russ Thompson provides guidance for future principals based upon
his experiences as the principal of three urban high schools in Los
Angeles. Practical suggestions are provided for creating an orderly
school climate, improving classroom instruction, ensuring effective
school operations, providing thoughtful leadership, and working
with people. Every principal makes mistakes and falls down. This
book is about standing up, becoming better, and working to create
schools where all students learn at the highest levels.
