Crisis Management's New Role in Educational Settings
Gainey, Barbara S.
Clearing House: A Journal of Educational Strategies, Issues and Ideas, v82 n6 p267-274 Jul-Aug 2009
From natural disasters to the financial debacle, it is clear to the educational community that crises know no boundaries. Far from a passing fad, crisis planning must be an integrated part of effective school district leadership. Two studies explore the status of crisis management in selected public school systems and offer recommendations for enhancing the crisis-ready state of educational organizations. (Contains 4 tables.)
