| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to examine the role and the processes that a principal must address when cultivating a positive school culture that supports novice teachers. As a component of a meaningful induction design that helps novices transition from their credential program to their new teaching assignment, the school culture can be a key variable in retaining beginning teachers. The factors that impede or support induction efforts at a school site, and the challenges and strategies that a principal must address in developing a school culture that can prove to be instrumental in retaining novices, were studied.; A multi-method qualitative approach was used to collect data for this study. An open-ended questionnaire administered to novices, as well as interviews of the principal, and novice and veteran teachers at the site were utilized in the collection of data. The data was coded and analyzed in order to inform findings that helped in answering the research questions. |
