School Board Governance: The Times They Are A-Changin'
Johnson, Paul A.
Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, v15 n2 p83-102 Jun 2012
Do school boards have a role in student achievement? Recent research suggests that they do. This case study identifies 12 board of education governance practices associated with higher levels of student achievement. The relationship between these board governance practices and the role of the board in district leadership is examined in the context of Superintendent Smith's change initiative.
