Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The goals and challenges for district leaders are constantly changing. Leadership and governance are only parts of the puzzle when other elements such as the NCLB legislation, budgets, standards and assessment, changing demographics, and public engagement are brought into the picture. Today's superintendent needs an effective tool to help steer the school district to success. Drawing on the experiences of nearly 200 superintendents over the past ten years, The Superintendent's Fieldbook offers guidance that can be referenced again and again. Written for current and future superintendents, principals, school board members and teachers, this valuable guide is divided into nine sections--each offering ideas to implement, practical lessons, exercises, and questions for reflective practice. The authors identify seven key "commonplaces" of the successful modern superintendent including: Leading within a governance structure; Understanding and addressing standards and assessment; Considering race, class, and the achievement gap; Developing your schools' principals from building managers to leaders of learning; Exploring collaborations with agencies of government and organizational allies; Engaging your community to construct a shared vision of the future. Vignettes describing real events and situations will help you connect lessons learned to your own district experiences, and help you and your district thrive in the rapidly changing world of education." -- Publisher.

Download or read book Working Toward Success written by Amy E. Van Deuren and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-02-10 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of positive board/superintendent relationships cannot be understated. The need to balance competing political pressures to create the best possible learning opportunities for students is ever present.

This book is a resource for both board members and superintendents, and explores issues related to the board/superintendent relationship and superintendent hiring practices.

This book is unique in that the intended audience is both boards and superintendents. It is not a resource wherein “experts” tell board members how they should conduct board business, nor a resource that informs superintendents how to “manage” school boards.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual for Use of Superintendents, Principals and School Officials This book is not a philosophical treatise on the American School System. Such books have a valuable place in our educational literature, and a number of excellent books of this nature have recently been written. Some especially valuable books, also, have been written on "The American High School," showing its purpose, place, etc. I can here do no better service to the readers of this handbook than to urge upon them the use of one or more of these more pretentious volumes. Nor is this a book of methods. This field is well covered already, and by authors far better able to write on such a theme. An aspiring superintendent or principal will familiarize himself with such valuable school literature. He cannot best gauge his own work nor best assist his teachers without some knowledge of methods of teaching. he present volume pretends to be no more than its title indicates, a manual for frequent use. As such, however, it is alone in its field. It has grown out of the experiences and observations of the author during twenty years as superintendent of village and city schools in communities ranging in population from three hundred to twelve thousand, and during four years as state inspector of village and city schools. These experiences and observations have been supplemented by frequent conferences with successful superintendents in various sized schools, and by talks with many members of boards of education. The preparation of this volume has been prompted by the testimony of many principals and superintendents that they have no way of knowing what other schools are doing, and therefore no way of gauging the success of their work.
