Assistant Principal Career Transition (Part I)
Herrington, David E.1 Kearney, W. Sean1
Abstract: The Assistant Principal position plays an important part in the upward progression of teachers into administrative roles. Yet most principal preparation programs address only CEO or principal leadership needs. The purpose of this inquiry is to assess the extent to which the principal preparation program at a newly chartered State University in the Southwestern United States is meeting the needs of newly enfranchised assistant principals. This article focuses on the experiences of assistant principals in their new roles and the reflections of educational leadership professors as they examine the gap between program delivery and practitioner need.
