The principal discovers that the reasons for winning the award are a sham! As her school falls apart, she begins toreflect on the stagnant school organization and the ineffective prescriptions for improvement. She wonders why as a democratic nation, American schools do not model the practice of democracy for students. The principal begins her quest to unearth the flaws in her own thinking about the way schools work in her quest to create more democratic schools. Endeavoring to understand how systems really work, the principal puts her new ideas into practice and shares with the reader the lessons learned from past practices. This book presents a guide for principals in the form of rules that suggest that educational leaders must ask themselves why they do what they do. It also takes readers through a series of vignettes focused on how principals can practice democracy in the schoolhouse, while challenging themselves and their school community. 000427826 650_0 $$aSchool principals$$zUnited States. 000427826 650_0 $$aEducational leadership$$zUnited States. 000427826 650_0 $$aDemocracy and education$$zUnited States. 000427826 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000427826 7001_ $$aChirichello, Michael. 000427826 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWalker, Sharron Goldman, 1945-$$tPrincipals as maverick leaders.$$dLanham, Md. : Rowman & Littlefield Education, 2011$$z9781610483483$$z9781610483490$$w(DLC) 2011004755$$w(OCoLC)701720739 000427826 8520_ $$bacq 000427826 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000427826 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=713312$$zOnline Access 000427826 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:427826$$pGLOBAL_SET 000427826 980__ $$aEBOOK 000427826 980__ $$aBIB 000427826 982__ $$aEbook 000427826 983__ $$aOnline
