The Board And Superintendent Handbook: Current Issues And Resources

The Board/Superintendent Handbook: Current Issues and Resources is a practical guide for both board members and superintendents. The book includes contributions from experienced and new superintendents and board members on a wide range of topics that boards and superintendents must navigate together successfully in order to move districts in a positive direction for students, staff, parents, and communities. Van Deuren, Evert, and Lang present frameworks and ideas for working through current issues faced by boards and superintendents, including Common Core State Standards, barriers to comprehensive student supports, alternative compensation models, external experts, technology, instruction, learning, and student achievement. The book contains a chapter about the critical roles of administrative assistants, while additional chapters focus on resource material. This book is unique in that the intended audience is both boards and superintendents. It is not a resource wherein experts tell board members how they should conduct board business, nor a resource that informs superintendents how to manage school boards. Instead, the book promotes and encourages a productive working relationship and partnership that moves school districts forward in a positive manner." 9781475815504 1475815506 0 School board members NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=SnZ8rgEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
