Better Principals, Better Schools
What Star Principals Know, Believe, and Do
by Stafford, Delia; Hill-Jackson, Valerie
Description
Praise for Better Principals, Better Schools
“Not every educator is suited to leading – or teaching – in the most challenging urban schools. Yet, nowhere else is excellence in leading – and teaching -- more critical to the success of students. This volume based on the pioneering work of Martin Haberman offers a practical response to those who say the task of instructional leadership is beyond the capability of principals. The authors offer concrete examples of how successful urban school leaders find the time and capacity to inspire and manage learning under difficult conditions. Just as important, the authors ground their examples in a set of clear justifiable principles that can be used by others to guide their own practice.”
Dr. Philip Hallinger
Professor, Chulalongkorn University (Thailand)
“If great teaching and more of it are the key ingredients for any successful school, then great leadership is the critical path. Better Principals, Better Schools turns this theory into model lessons for all current and aspiring school leaders.”
Mike Feinberg
Co-founder KIPP Schools
