Contributors to this volume examine structures and processes that school boards have in place directly relating to the process of principal or vice-principal succession. As well, they consider the effect that these structures and processes have upon staff and administrators themselves. These contributors investigate policies, procedures and practices that school boards employ in terms of leadership succession, and explore implications of these constructs for the sustainability of school improvement. This volume presents an overview of the process of principal or vice-principal succession, descriptions of school district practices surrounding this process and discussions regarding how succession procedures affect individuals and groups of individuals. This volume also highlights those board policies that incorporate practices used to develop models that support and allow administrators to succeed. It articulates how school leaders and staff members deal with change and improvement efforts in successive schools, as well as how board policies and practices support principals and vice-principals at any stage in the succession process. This volume is useful as a reference guide relating to transfer and rotation procedures in school systems across the nation.

This book examines major issues in theory and research related to leader succession. It looks at the persistent problems confronted by people assigned to lead established social and professional groups like those found in schools. The author demonstrates how interaction between new leaders and established school organizations shape succession events (with illustrations drawn from educational administration) and provides a framework for understanding succession as a dynamic and interactive process.

The role of the school principal is vital to a school’s overall success, and the need to appoint and support excellent educational leaders is critical. School districts continually face principal succession, and the replacement of a principal relies on a selection and recruitment process in identifying a candidate who reflects the best fit, at the right time, for the school. This research investigated the experiences associated with the decision-making process by superintendents when looking to fill a principal vacancy and the experiences of newly appointed or reassigned principals who completed their first year. The intent was to identify common factors associated with the first year experience and structures in place to support principals during their transition. This qualitative study’s primary data collection was through in-depth interviews with participants. The research sample included a total of three superintendents, three Assistant Superintendents of Human Resources, and nine newly appointed or reassigned principals in urban, or suburban, Southern California public schools. This study intended to further our understanding of the experiences of newly appointed or reassigned principals during their transition year. Future research in this area might encourage superintendents to approach principal succession planning from a formative perspective inclusive of discussions about replacement plans during performance evaluations. A principal succession plan focused on the transition in leadership, and inclusive of both the predecessor and successor intentional interactions, creates the opportunity to engage in reflective dialogue that may have a positive impact on a school and increase the likelihood of successor success.

School districts across the United States are confronted with a shortage of highly qualified principal applicants, a situation compounded by a haphazard approach to leadership succession planning. While the vast majority of principals and superintendents endorse the promotion of assistant principals as the most effective way to develop successful school leaders, few structures exist to support that endeavor. Despite their essential role in the school's operations and escalating demands for accountability for high standards and performance at the school level, assistant principals have been rendered virtually invisible in the scholarly literature. This study sought to fill the glaring gap in knowledge of the socialization experiences of assistant principals. Through a qualitative, in-depth phenomenological interview study of eight novice elementary school principals, this study focused on how the leadership practices of principals are influenced and informed by their prior experiences as assistant principals, as well as identified and defined the assistant principal's roles and responsibilities. Themes that surfaced from the data analysis process were narrowed to relationships, leadership development, and job responsibilities for assistant principals and principals. The findings indicated that assistant principal roles and responsibilities are more managerial than instructional, districts are providing less professional development opportunities for assistant principals than they are principals, and preparedness for the role of principal is largely dependent on the leadership opportunities provided by the principals mentoring the assistant principals. It is recommended that school districts take a strategic approach to succession planning that includes opportunities for assistant principals to experience multiple leadership styles as well as distributing instructional leadership responsibilities as training for the principalship. School districts also need to assure that principals are equipped to develop assistant principals' leadership capabilities through techniques such as mentoring, coaching, training, and providing them with opportunities to exercise leadership.

Between 1998 and 2000, seventy principals were named in the Austin Independent School District to succeed other principals. Several schools had two or more principals in that period. Not only is there an immediate cost when a principal is not successful, but there is also a cost associated with repair or replacement. Knowing what is necessary in the induction experience to make a principal succeed is critical. We have an obligation to these principals, their teachers, the taxpayers, and most of all, the students, to maximize their success. This study explored the experiences of elementary principals in the Austin Independent School District who recently succeeded other principals. Issues addressed included the principals' perceptions of their experiences and the impact of those experiences on their effectiveness. Findings will be offered as recommendations that may better inform principals who step into the succession role in the district. Questionnaires were sent to elementary principals named between 1998 and 1999 and still in those same schools in 2001-2002. Based on responses, principals were invited to participate in focus groups. Based on written responses and participation in focus groups, three principals were selected as case studies. Data revealed that succession principals had positive experiences including communication with others, establishment of procedures and routines, relationship building, and knowledge of district policies and procedures. Negative experiences included the effects of prior school leadership, challenging relationships, communication issues, and lack of support. As a result of these experiences, principals developed inner strength and powerful relationships with peers. It was recommended that support for succession principals continue beyond the induction year and include: trained mentors; time to dialogue with mentors and peer principals; quick responses to questions or requests for support; and receipt, early in the process, of critical information regarding role definition, expectations, district policies, and district procedures. Recommendations for further study included: investigating the succession experiences of secondary principals; comparing the succession experiences of principals named from within the district to those named from outside the district; and studying the relationship between the rate of principal retention and teacher retention.
