Excellent Resource User friendly read with many tips and ideas for using your time efficiently and establishing the climate you want. | ||
A must have for any new or old principal I "had "to buy this book for a class in my masters program and after using it in class and reading through it, I decided that I was NOT going to sell it back. This is a great resource and help for principals or administrators. This will be a well read and heavily highlighted book that will remain a part of my library. | ||
Helpful! I am two thirds through this book, but there is so much advice and consciousness-raising information that is thoughtfully presented and very much need that it's not necessary to wait until I finish the book to write a glowing recommendation. There are ideas I will need this year to boost collegiality and morale. Some of the problem-sharing ideas are quick and easy to implement, too. I would like to have read more about interviewing and hiring teachers, but other than that I am quite pleased. I'll pick up this book often as a refresher. | ||
Excellent! When I was a new assistant principal, I bought this book for a resource for my job. I am glad that I did. Not only did it help me throughout my assistant's career, but it assisted me while I worked on my master's. It is a hands-on resource book that can help with many situations or prepare you for new situations. In our jobs, every day is a surprise, so the more effective resources that we have on our shelf, the more relaxed we are when it comes our way. I believe that this is a book that should be in the curriculum of every college campus preparing dynamic, future principals. Cathy Blair | ||
