Urban High School Principals Need a New Kind of Support System.
Tewel, Kenneth J.
NASSP Bulletin, v71 n498 p101-12 Apr 1987
Focuses on three urban secondary principals who were effective in turning schools in crisis into effective schools. Identifies the barriers the principals encountered and overcame in the process. Describes how these principals' authoritarian styles ceased to be effective when the schools were no longer in crisis. Points to a need for a new type of urban principals' network. (MD)
