The public expects its schools to meet high academic standards. This is
a practical leadership book written specifically for key educational
leaders, especially principals, superintendents, or other members of the
school's leadership team. The challenge of standards-based schools (SBS)
is described, and an emerging theory of leadership describes how to set
up the eight basic structures of an SBS. This book will help the
educational professional to understand the elements of a standards-based
school and to know how to rise to the challenge of leading one.
