Principals on PBS by Jtsotigh [September 21, 2009 15:17]

I saw the episode and it demonstrated the qualities of an effective leader could be the critical tipping point in terms of school improvement. Too bad the principal decided to move out of administration into a consulting role as she had some great qualities that other schools could have benefited. Thanks for this information
