Opis

From the Principal's X-Files examines day-to-day, real-world situations and events that are often humorous and, at times, poignant as a point of reference for implementing best practices to create and maintain effective and nurturing school cultures. The ultimate goal of this guide for practical principals is to help all stakeholders productively and cooperatively interact and achieve the mission and vision of their schools. Hollaway and Hollaway strive to assist novice and seasoned administrators in creating and maintaining high performing school communities in which every stakeholder--from students, to parents, to staff members, to school leaders, and to community members--feels invested in his school. Throughout the book, the quality of the relationships between stakeholders is reiterated as the greatest predictor of school success. School administrators must enhance those vital relationships within their schools to establish a single-minded and effective school culture that values inclusion and connectedness among all actors in the pursuit of a common goal.
