| Abstract | Achieving higher levels of learning for all children has become the 21st century educational challenge across the nation. Substantial evidence exists that principals can have a profound effect on the learning climate, educational programs, and professional norms of practice in schools; however, controversy still reigns over the effects of principal practice on student learning. This study was designed to explore these gaps in the empirical literature by investigating the impact of the Dunkin (Pseudonym) ISD Principal Coaching Initiative (DPCI) on leadership practice. The DPCI is a district-wide executive leadership capacity-building program that combines the district’s standards-based leadership curriculum with a leadership coaching support structure for principals. |
