Book excerpt: This book offers guidelines for school administrators who want to apply the principles of Total Quality Management to the organizational challenges faced by schools. Based on W. Edwards Deming's nine attributes of successful leadership, the book shows how to make the transformation to instructional leadership based on Total Quality Education (TQE). Chapter 1 examines how leaders get a diverse faculty to work together in pursuit of a collective vision. This is accomplished through the strategic planning process. Chapter 2 assimilates the key concepts of Total Quality Management (TQM) into the school by asking the key questions: Who is the customer? and How can principals organize the suppliers to maintain a focus on quality and continuous improvement? Chapter 3 addresses the role of instructional leader as "people developer," an administrator who is committed to optimizing the talents of all staff members. Chapter 4 offers concrete examples and specific suggestions for using peer coaching and peer supervision as mechanisms to foster continuous improvement. Data-based decision making is examined in chapter 5, specifically, the use of collaborative action research. The sixth chapter focuses on several mechanisms used by principals to build a professional learning community. It offers practical advice on how to implement "management by walking around" (MBWA) in schools, how to use governance process to maximum benefit, and what differentiates the leaders of learning communities from administrators in seemingly stagnant schools. The concluding chapter presents an integrated model of the TQE instructional leadership process. Twenty-three figures are included. Key terms and concepts are defined at the end of each chapter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Principal’s Hot Seat: Observing Real-World Dilemmas, 2nd edition provides a window through which aspiring and practicing school leaders observe and evaluate some of the most challenging, authentic, and unpredictable interactions common to the principalship. With video footage from an unscripted role play in which teachers, parents, and stakeholders share a variety of issues and emotions with the principal, the Hot Seat challenges readers to unpack the ways principals attempt to address routine and unpredictable challenges in school leadership. From distraught, pushy, or irate parents to teachers refusing to collaborate, curriculum controversies and cultural responsivity, readers assume the “hot seat” and feel the challenge principals face in navigating conversations and issues in ethical, individual, standards-based ways. Each chapter begins with stage setting and scenario background information, along with relevant literature, research, and resources, followed by a transcript of the interaction, and questions promoting discussion, reflection, and constructive critique. Each scenario comes alive through several minutes of video footage of the unscripted interaction, allowing examination of body language, tone of voice, and non-verbal communication. The second edition adds new scenarios related to teacher collaboration, controversial curriculum, current social issues, updated literature and resources, and cases in which the principal must interact with more than one stakeholder at a time. New questions examine principals’ performance related to equity, when to seek assistance from others, and more. Video footage located at: https://textbooks.rowman.com/principals-hot-seat2e

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The principal’s role is increasingly understood as a critical lever for school improvement. Yet the job can be a solitary one, offering few opportunities to reflect with colleagues. What does it take to manage the work of continuous improvement—to push staff members constantly to operate outside their comfort zones? What dilemmas and challenges must principals confront? How can school leaders learn from their mistakes and move forward? In Becoming a School Principal, Sarah E. Fiarman describes her first few years as a school principal committed to enacting a powerful vision of leading and learning. Drawing thoughtfully on the literature of school reform and change leadership, Fiarman discusses a wide range of topics, including empowering teachers, building trust, addressing racial and economic inequities, and supporting a culture of continuous learning, as well as thornier issues such as learning to use authority skillfully, dealing with resistance, and managing supervision and evaluation. The book addresses common challenges and highlights missteps as well as successes. A contributing author to several leading books on school reform and instructional improvement, Fiarman engages readers in a lively, frank, and revealing conversation about building the vision and capacity to provide effective instruction for all students and the intensely personal process of learning to lead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based upon years of reviewing the work product of building principals evaluations of their teaching staff, it has been evident to me there is a clear need to improve this critical aspect of school administration. This book is designed to provide building principals (and assistant principals) with guidance on (1) the necessary preparation of the principal to be effective at guiding and coaching their staff; (2) the laying of the foundation for their teachers to know the standard of performance expected by the school district as whole, and the specific building where they serve, guide, and teach their students; (3) the teaching of their instructional staff what constitutes good lesson planning and instruction as defined by the educational model adopted by the school and art of teaching under that model; (4) developing the skills for the writing of effective teacher formative and summative evaluations to assist in the improvement of instruction; and (5) the work required in (1) to (4) above to establish and qualify the principal as an expert witness under the Rules of Evidence if he/she is called upon to participate in the end game of moving an underperforming teacher along. The book is designed as a step-by-step process with reading assignments, and self-instruction tasks at the end of each chapter applying the concepts, teaching, supporting, and assisting teachers in the science of teaching needed to develop, maintain, and excel at their craft. It is shown scientifically that where teachers know the districts standards of performance, student learning improves, and students learn how to learnessential in todays ever-changing society. Being an effective building principal thus requires you to be an expert in your field( i.e., that person who is rhetorically asked, Who are you who are so wise in the science of teaching?). About the Author As you will surmise quickly in reading this book, Rex Schultze has had the fortunate circumstance of being immersed in public education for his entire life from 1951 to the present - as a teachers and administrators kid; as a high school teacher for four years; as the brother of an elementary school teacher and administrator; and, as a lawyer with a 40 year practice focused on public education both K-12 and community college levels. As such, he brings to you in Who are you who are so wise in the science of teaching a lifetime of perspective on the value of an education, and particularly public education, the most important equalizer of the citizens of our country and the need to grow, support and nurture the best teachers possible. Rex is a Boomer - as in Baby Boomer (OK Boomer) an early version of that generation that grew up in the 50s and 60s, so you will find references to the movies and music of those days throughout the book to add perspective and some fun. (Apologies in advance for the succeeding generations; you can google the references a contribution by Rex to your personal history journey).

Book excerpt: Most of us have experience with school, either as a student, a parent or maybe as a teacher. But few people have experienced walking in the shoes of a school principal. Meet the Principal is a collection of stories from one principal's experiences. These stories show the many intriguing challenges a school leader faces each day. Most principals have stories just like these. Some are funny, some are sad, some may surprise you, and some may touch your heart. When you put them all together as a book, they portray a realistic view of the complex and delicate relationships all principals juggle while on their journey into the very heart of education. "There is a lot more to being a principal than most folks would believe. It should be required reading for new principals." D. Mercer, President of the YMCA of the USA (retired) "This is an eye opening read for anyone wanting a better understanding of the events at school that challenge the principals and teachers. The only criticism I have is that I wanted it to go on for longer." L. Craig, Grandparent This UPDATED and retitled edition (Originally "Beyond the ABCs: What Does a Principal Do All Day?" Dec 2018) includes new chapters and updated details.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Becoming a School Principal originated as a study of a new open space elementary school and how it engaged faculty and staff in designing programs and procedures. Monthly planning sessions focused on the development of a school culture devoted to developing “good persons” within an atmosphere of cooperative teaching and collaboration. Considerable attention was focused on the principal and his history as a one room country schoolteacher at age seventeen. In recent history, public education has become highly politicized, with reforms focusing on test results as a measure of progress. With each new administration, the nation has taken on a new mantra, but the reforms have not significantly improved achievement. This book was written in the spirit of John Dewey and his advocacy for school-based research initiatives designed and implemented by practitioners. It is meant for educators and parents who want to help schools be the best that they can be. The narrative examines how one man rose from humble beginnings to lead a new, innovative school. It is an ethnography of a school principal and a group of teachers in the act of doing good things for children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to bring out the best in your staff—and in yourself Research shows that the single variable that makes the most difference in student performance is the quality of the teacher. How do we keep teachers motivated in the face of increased pressure for grades, class sizes and media attention? How do we attract and retain high-quality teachers? This inspiring text offers a refreshing alternative to the portfolio and high-stakes accountability models of school improvement. Based on the successful methods of Dealous Cox, The Relentless Pursuit of Excellence describes a leadership philosophy based on the search for wisdom through personal reflection and community. The authors share their experience with this leadership style and document the sustainable results of transformational leaders working with teachers as partners rather than adversaries. These results include Consistently improved teacher performance Improved teacher quality Greater professional satisfaction for teachers Stronger community support for schools Richard Sagor and Deborah Rickey have tracked this established leadership model for more than 30 years. Their work shows how, when sustained over time, these leadership principles have transformed professional behavior throughout school districts and made a long-term difference for teachers and students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Metro Nashville Public Schools (MNPS) integration was a complicated process. Though a plan had been implemented in 1970, this plan was reversed by a higher court in 1981 resulting in school closings, teacher transfers, and students bussed miles from home just days before school started. These unexpected changes put burdens on principals, teachers, and staff, as they did their best in a time of uncertainty. These stories, many never shared before, took place during the court-ordered integration plan, and the process of trying to educate students despite the chaos. They examine the experience of combining students from differing cultures, while striving for positive results for all. These differences were not always black or white. Dr. Mack Hargis, former teacher, coach, principal, and school board member, offers an insider's perspective on the path to the MNPS's integration.
