Reviews

A much-needed book, especially for practicing and prospectus school leaders, that bridges theory with practice to support leaders in school improvement. It puts leadership into a wider perspective so readers can see how theory can be translated into action. Each of the 11 chapters takes the reader on a learning journey gaining insights, important lessons, and tangible practices from principals in the field whose improvement efforts are worth learning from. An essential book for principal preparation programs! Leslie Locke and Sonya Hayes have compiled an important must-read resource for students and faculty of education administration preparation programs. Each chapter presents a different education leader who confronted unique circumstances and challenges while trying to improve their school. Most importantly, the reader learns how each leader put theory into practice to change school culture, to increase teacher effectiveness, or to raise student achievement. The author of each chapter shares insights, frustrations, and accomplishments that will connect in some way to every future and current education leader. Bridging Leadership and School Improvement: Advice from the Field will leave the reader with a sense of satisfaction knowing that they have gained practical knowledge about how to improve their own school.
