| Summary: | Quandaries of the Small-District Superintendency teaches superintendents and superintendents-in-training how to develop critical frameworks for thinking through and addressing the problems and practices superintendents encounter daily. Focused on the particular needs of superintendents of districts of fewer than ten thousand students, the chapters invite students to examine the everyday practices of school leaders from different perspectives and to form a detailed and practical understanding of administration and leadership. The book draws equally on education administration and management practices and on social and educational theory, with the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium standards for school leadership framing the whole in order to address all key aspects of superintendency. A thought-provoking consideration of the unsolvable quandaries every small-district superintendent faces, Quandaries of the Small-District Superintendency is a valuable touchstone for the issues that will be faced by current and future leaders alike. |
