Summary
A guide addressed to US high school principals presenting a series of cultural situations that could occur within the first 100 days of a school year: responding to entrenched vocabularies and behaviors, addressing professional and instructional bad habits, enacting alternative teaching scripts, etc. Each cultural situation offers a new school leader the opportunity to redefine the goals, values, and practices of an entrenched school culture--Adapted from back cover [of print version]
