English
In order for a school systems to function well, the superintendents and boards of education must successfully model the values of cooperation, honest communication, and leadership they espouse for their students, teachers, and administrators. This issue of New Directions for School Leadership shows how superintendents and school boards can build a strong, collaborative team relationship that reflects those values. Written by practitioners, the chapters offer effective, creative techniques superintendents and boards can use to enhance communication and relationship-building, including annual planning retreats, weekly written communications, and annual evaluations of the superintendent. The authors also describe successful approaches for creating a climate of trust and support in the school administration and improving the academic achievements of minority students. This is the 12th issue of New Directions for School Leadership.
