Description
Far too little attention has been paid to the role that assistant principals have in the development of high performing schools. Impact provides specific, practical, and replicable leadership strategies for today’s assistant principal. Impact describes how to build meaningful principal/assistant principal leadership teams. The opportunities that assistant principals have to be the instructional leader of the school and the voice of the faculty, and the principal; in other words, how to “lead from the middle” are examined.Impact is a practitioner’s guide for the assistant principal striving to be a school leader. Target audiences include teachers wishing to become assistant principals, current assistant principals looking to excel and lead careers of significance, colleges of education working with graduate students who are being trained in P-12 school administration, and sitting school principals looking to expand the often under-utilized, potential of the assistant principal.This book examines the art and science of the assistant principal as a school leader; as a leader who impacts the lives of teachers and students. Great assistant principals matter.

This is a pretty good book. Full disclosure: I am not an assistant principal (yet), someday I hope. However, I read this book cover-to-cover and I felt as though there should have been more material in there to help me out. There are several questions that I get when I go on interviews that stump me... like: "How important is Master Scheduling and what is your experience with it?" Or "You get a report about a teacher using a racist slur in a classroom, what is your first response?" Or "Tell us what you would do during your first 90 days." Believe it or not, it is getting harder and harder to break into administration and maybe what I was looking for was not a book about BEING an Assistant Principal, but a book about HOW TO BECOME one.There are several sources of information in here however that I found enlightening. Like the fact that Assistant Principals have to be leaders of the curriculum and they have to be able to handle a variety of events. Would I purchase this book again? Maybe later on in my career, once I got the job it would have been valuable. Right now, however, I have found more success with: "Becoming a School Leader: Applications, Interviews, Examinations and Portfolios" by Charles A. Bonnici.
