Perceptions of Shared Governance in an Elementary School.
Epp, Juanita Ross; MacNeil, Carol
Canadian Journal of Education, v22 n3 p254-67 Sum 1997
The first year of shared governance in a Canadian urban elementary school and the responses of the school's 14 teachers to the system of equal rights and responsibilities for teachers and the principal were described. Shared governance worked well, although not without conflict, but the group eventually used shared governance to resolve conflicts. (SLD)
