New Releases by Catherine Marshall

The life of a school administrator is a never-ending series of challenges. It''s a path not recommended for the faint of heart, as anyone who has held such a position will attest. Administrative leadership requires a high level of managerial skill, experience, commitment, and preparedness. The Administrative Career provides an in-depth look, from entry level to retirement, at all aspects of this rewarding career. Authors Marshall and Kasten have 24 years of combined experience teaching master''s and doctoral students and doing research in educational administration. Through case studies derived from interviews and discussions with their students, they''ve created a guide that reflects the everyday world and dilemmas encountered in school. Particular attention is focused on the strengths of administrators willing to take risks, on women and minorities in administration, and on the assistant principalship. The Administrative Career is a complete, practical guide - an excellent resource for educators at all levels of administration. This is a book equally at home in the hands of practicing administrators and those who aspire to join their ranks.
