Participants from one public high school in southeastern Pennsylvania completed the researcher-developed online survey and participated in face-to-face interviews. Results of this study indicated that participants noted the importance of the principal in establishing a culture that fostered student achievement. Results of this study also pointed to the overall school environment as a critical component in establishing a culture for student success and teacher leadership capacity.

These findings may provide direction for high school principals and future principals in understanding the impact principals do have in creating a positive school environment.

Book Perceptions of the Roles  Professional Development  Challenges  and Frustrations of High School Principals

This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to investigate the current perceptions of high school principals regarding their perceived roles, professional development experiences that impacted their careers, and the challenges and frustrations they face when enacting their roles as high school leaders. This qualitative study investigated perceptions of high school principals and addressed three research questions: (1) What are the perceptions of high school principals regarding their role as school leaders? (2) What professional development experiences do high school principals report are most important in impacting their careers? (3) What do high school principals perceive are their greatest challenges and frustrations? Three in-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with each of eight high school principals. The results were based on analysis by the researcher and the two expert panels. The high school principals perceived that they had a tremendous number of roles and responsibilities within their positions. The roles and responsibilities that were identified with the greatest importance were: providing a safe learning environment, ensuring quality teachers and quality instruction, high accountability expectations for all and mandates, and leadership within the school and system. Professional development opportunities and personalized support systems were perceived to be vital to the success of the high school principal. Principals in the study reported that both formal and informal professional development experiences were beneficial for their improvement as school leaders. The principals perceived that when they created relationships with mentors and established strong networks, they improved the likelihood of sustained support and success. High school principals perceived the greatest challenges were management of time, balancing leadership and management of the school, and navigating the legislative mandates and accountability requirements. High school principals perceived the greatest frustrations were issues related to time and legislative mandates dictated to them by the local, state, and federal systems. They faced constant pressures that could be directly tied to student achievement and accountability measures. High school principals need to be prepared to assume various roles. Further research may determine if roles and challenges identified by the eight participants mirror other states' results.

Book Principals  Perceptions of the Relationship Between Teacher Leader Positions and Success as a Head School Administrator in Pennsylvania

Download or read book Principals Perceptions of the Relationship Between Teacher Leader Positions and Success as a Head School Administrator in Pennsylvania written by Bradley Testa and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The K-12 principalship is a role unlike any other. The demands and responsibilities placed on this position are numerous, while the gratification and accolades, can, at times, be non-existent. As the years have progressed, the demands, roles and responsibilities that accompany this position have grown immensely. Principals that used to run and operate buildings now are often the instructional leader of the building, handle conflicts and budgetary issues, and be a community outreach worker, all while still managing and operating the school building. As this change in the principalship has occurred, and the demands of the position have increased, the pool of qualified candidates for these positions has decreased. Less people are becoming certified for these positions, and many candidates that are certified are not applying when they come open. This decrease in candidates is the result of a number of factors, including increased workload, salary that does not match the work and effort that principals put into the position on a daily basis, as well as the isolated environment that principals often have to work in as a result of the nature of the position. As a result, there is a shortage of effective/successful principals in Pennsylvania, and interview panels struggle to find and hire candidates that will succeed in these positions. This study attempted to aid interview panels and aspiring administrators by examining the relationship between teacher leadership positions and success as head school administrators in Pennsylvania. Principals were surveyed regarding the types of leadership positions that they held or served in during their tenure as a teacher, and how they felt each of these roles contributed to their success as a principal. More specifically, the study analyzed how each role impacts certain skills that are characteristic of effective principals. The goals of the study were to provide interview panels with information on which teacher leader positions help principals become successful, and also to give aspiring principals some insight into which positions will give them experience that could possibly lead to future success. The majority of respondents to the study had served in the classroom for a period of 2-10 years prior to entering the field of administration. In addition, most of the principals who participated in the study reported having served in a high school, along with having worked in a suburban setting, both as teachers and administrators. The role that was occupied most by the respondents was teacher mentor. In addition, it was found that principals believe that serving as a teacher mentor had the greatest impact on future administrative success, and that serving on the Student Assistance Program team had the least amount of impact. Principals who had not served in the leadership positions believed that they would have received the most benefit from having served as a department chair/curriculum coordinator, and that the least amount of benefit would have come from serving as an athletic coach. Also, principals not holding these positions recommended that aspiring administrators serve as teacher mentors, as they would garner the most benefit from this position. It was also found that athletic coaches were the least recommended of the five leadership positions. Lastly, principals who had served in these leadership roles during their tenures in the classroom were asked about how each of these roles affected their ability to perform twelve characteristics that effective principals share. When the results of these questions were analyzed, it was found that the three characteristics that were found to have been impacted the most from the leadership positions pertained to the visionary and forward-thinking aspects of the principalship, while the three characteristics that were found to receive the least amount of enhancement from the roles were those that are associated with the day-to day operations of the school building. From this, it can be concluded that serving in the five leadership roles will help administrators establish a long-term vision for the school, and be more of an instructional leader and keeper of the vision, rather than simply an operations manager. This further exacerbates and defines the difference between leadership and management.
