The Principalship by Thomas Sergiovanni

The Principalship by Thomas Sergiovanni

In its revised sixth edition,The Principalship continues to emphasize school culture, standards, and building community, while also providing a moral basis for leadership as a means of navigating contextual issues and constraints that principals routinely face. Studying The Principalship, future principals will explore in-depth the array of decisions that they will be confronted with and how those decisions will affect students, teachers, and school policy. Extensively updated, the new edition emphasizes diversity as a part of community building; the importance of instructional and shared leadership; and the building of communities of practice, while the book's trademark concentration on reflective practice is maintained throughout the text. The sixth edition also contains a new Some Reflections feature that appears in most chapters and that offers students a chance for further critical thinking and enriched class discussions.

Here's what a colleague says about this book..

One of the best, if not the best, texts ever written for aspiring school administrators. The gentle blend of theory and practicality make it a must read for aspiring school administrators. I enjoyed teaching from this text more than any other.

-Philip V. Bender, Indiana State University
