Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a result of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, the accountability, annual testing, and demonstrating academic progress of all students has become a major priority of educators throughout the nation. In Ohio, schools are rated based on their students' performance on state diagnostic and achievement tests (e.g., Local Report Cards). Therefore, school principals and other school personnel are in constant pursuit of learning how to educate students more efficiently. The purpose of this study was to determine the specific practices and leadership emphasis of the principal that are perceived to positively impact student achievement. Three successful elementary schools were investigated through principal interviews, teacher focus groups, and observations. The schools chosen were each designated as an Ohio School of Promise, meaning each has made great strides in positive student achievement scores in spite of a low socioeconomic level. Qualitatively, the study explored the perceptions of the principal's role in successful schools by answering the following research questions: (a) How does the principal support instruction aligned to the state's academic content standards? (b) How does the principal maintain continuous improvement of the school? (c) What is the principal's role in the design of instruction for student success? (d) What is the principal's role in developing partnerships with parents and the community to support student success? (e) What is the principal's role in developing a culture where each individual feels valued? As a result of the data analysis process, 13 themes developed among the three schools (e.g., common planning time, curriculum mapping, and intervention). However, an all-encompassing idea kept reoccurring: The principals were able to create the culture where both adults and students excelled. The principals engaged in activities that created and sustained a sense of belonging for students, teachers, parents, and the communities in which the schools resided. They also successfully provided a clear direction for students and teachers. These findings are perceived to be a major reason why students are achieving great success at these schools.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of the elementary principal is more challenging and complex than ever before. Principals are not only expected to be strong leaders, but they are expected to practice shared leadership with their various constituent groups. The ever-changing responsibilities of the position have contributed to disparate views on the role of the principal. Different constituent groups vary in their perceptions of an effective principal. The better a principal understands the perceptions and expectations of the various constituent groups he or she serves, the more likely it is that a principal can fulfill the expectations and be perceived as effective. This study identified the perceptions of parents and teachers with regard to the characteristics of an effective elementary school principal. An inventory was used as the primary source of quantitative data for the study. Qualitative data was gathered through participant responses to a series of open-ended questions relating to five leadership themes interviewed within the inventory. Twenty-nine parents and forty teachers from three separate primary schools (grades kindergarten through three) within one school district were surveyed.
