School District Central Office Power and Student Performance.
Peterson, Steven A.
School Psychology International, v20 n4 p376-87 Nov 1999
Examines the hypothesis that as central district offices try to assert their power over school buildings, students' performance will decline. Uses the National Educational Longitudinal Study as a database to test this expectation. Results suggest that intrusive central offices are associated with somewhat lower student performance. (Contains 27 references and 1 table.) (Author/GCP)
