Studies in Educational Leadership Administrative Passages: Navigating the Transition from Teacher to Assistant Principal, Book 4, (Paperback)

The transition from teacher to administrator is a critical period. While the study of effective schools consistently highlights the importance of administrators in helping students succeed, there is little information on how novices become effective administrators, what measures need to be taken to facilitate the transition, and how novices should be supported once they assume their new roles in order to realize their full potential. This book examines administrative leadership transitions through the lens of newly appointed assistant principals, helping readers see what works and what doesn't work in making an effective school administrator. It is written for university and school administrators and researchers in education administration and organizational leadership.
