The assistant principal is often overlooked in school leadership literature, yet in recent years has grown to be a vital part of secondary schools (Marshall & Hooley, 2006). This descriptive study seeks to expand on the work of Marshall and Hooley (2006), which serves as a primer in the study of assistant principals. In an era of increased accountability, this study explores how assistant principals balance the needs of students, teachers, parents, and constituents? This descriptive study seeks to understand the work that secondary school assistant principals do, how assistant principals are trained, the challenges they face, and their job satisfaction in a midsized Midwestern city. This study explores assistant principals from grades six through twelve with various levels of education, experience, and career aspirations to build a deeper understanding of their roles as assistant principals.

This book makes a much needed contribution to what we know about the role and work of the assistant principal. It offers terri c insights into the different challenges one faces after being appointed assistant principal, and it provides readers with a rich array of data regarding the mental, emotional, social, and physical adjustments accompanying one’s transition to this new role. The author refreshingly moves beyond mere description of what assistant prin- pals do as they make their transition to that role, and actually helps us gain a sense of the lived experience of becoming and being an assistant principal. The book gives a realistic picture of the cognitive, social, and emotional con icts and confusions, the daily ups and downs, the fears, frustrations, and highs that are experienced by the men and women undertaking the passage from teaching to administration. This book is distinctive for a number of reasons. It is an empirical study of the role of the assistant principal. There are comparatively few helpful studies, and P- fessor Armstrong’s research adds a solid and much needed addition to that body of work. It focuses on the transition from being a teacher to being an assistant prin- pal, and it reveals much about how the assistant principal’s role transition differs markedly from that of the school principal.

The role of the assistant principal is an excellent educational resource and should be enhanced to allow assistant principals a more vital role in instructional leadership. This document lists functions related to the assigned, expected, and assumed responsibilities of the assistant principal that would enhance his/her role and involvement, as well as situational influences that should be considered when that role is defined. Separate lists of suggestions for improving the assistant principal's relationship with the District Office, the principal, the faculty, the students, parents, and professional organizations are given, and the organizational structure of the assistant principalship is outlined. Also provided are recommendations in the areas of role enhancement, evaluation, supervision, and professional development aimed at improving the performance and satisfaction of assistant principals and increasing their suitability for advanced administrative posts. Recommendations to school boards, superintendent and central office administrators, principals, teachers, parents, patrons, and assistant principals regarding the reassessment and enhancement of assistant principalships are listed, and recommendations for the preparation, recruitment, and selection of competent assistant principals are given.

Instructional leadership must be consistent and pervasive in order for principals to lead schools and meet the ever-evolving needs of students. Over the years, the role of the building principal has evolved from building manager to instructional leader. While this evolution has engrossed much scholarly attention, minimal research has been conducted regarding the role of an assistant principal. The roles and responsibilities of assistant principals vary greatly depending on the principal, who determines the responsibilities he or she is willing to share or delegate to their assistant. To assist with providing consistent and pervasive instructional leadership, the role of the assistant principal must be called upon to develop instructional leadership. This qualitative study explored the unique experiences of two assistant principals practicing instructional leadership in a Pennsylvania high school. The intrinsic case study approach was selected in order to develop an in-depth description and analysis of how the assistant principals experience the dynamics of their relationship with their principal and the principal practices leading to the development of the assistant principals as instructional leaders. The researcher explored the central research question: How does the working relationship between a high school principal and assistant principals influence the assistant principals' instructional leadership? Additionally, the following sub-questions were explored: 1. How do high school administrators in a Pennsylvania district describe the essential skills and responsibilities of an instructional leader? 2. How do high school administrators in a Pennsylvania district describe the roles and responsibilities of assistant principals? 3. How do high school administrators in a Pennsylvania district describe principal practices that support assistant principals' instructional leadership? This qualitative case study extends current research and provides a greater understanding of how a high school principal in south, central Pennsylvania fosters the instructional leadership of his assistant principals. Data collection included semi-structured interviews and a review of documents, totaling 11 datasets. Data analysis yielded five major themes including: (a) Instructional Leaders Know and Show the Way, (b) Assistant Principals Serve as Liaisons, (c) Communication is Critical to Instructional Leadership, (d) Assembling a Strong Principal-Assistant Principal Team, and (e) Principals Facilitate the Leadership Development of Assistant Principals. Five primary results derived from the findings: (a) instructional leaders create and communicate a shared vision, provide teachers with individualized professional learning, and are committed to personal growth; (b) assistant principals and principals fulfill similar instructional leadership responsibilities; however, the role of the assistant principal is reactive in nature and the assistant principal serves as a liaison between the principal and all stakeholder groups; (c) principals and assistant principals must engage in open and honest communication in all directions in order to fulfill their leadership roles and increase their leadership growth, specifically with regard to instructional leadership; (d) when hiring an assistant principal, principals need to find a candidate that possesses a similar philosophy, but different strengths in order to assemble a strong, compatible team; and (e) principals must facilitate the leadership development of their assistant principals by getting to know their interests and strengths, empowering and supporting them, and providing meaningful leadership opportunities. The following recommended principal practices emerged during the research study. To assist with establishing the roles and responsibilities of assistant principals as instructional leaders, principals should: (a) foster professional learning networks to stay abreast of current best practices in education; (b) look for assistant principal candidates with similar philosophical beliefs, but varied strengths and differing skill sets; (c) create and communicate the specific roles and responsibilities of assistant principals; (d) assume the role of mentor and create opportunities to provide guidance to assistant principals while partaking in leadership tasks together; (e) spend time with their assistant principal every day; (f) schedule time each day to dialogue with their assistant principals--discussions should include brainstorming, planning, reflection, and feedback; (g) provide opportunities to assistant principals who align with the assistant principal's interests and strengths; (h) provide assistant principals with opportunities to communicate with all stakeholders; (i) delegate authentic, meaningful instructional leadership tasks to assistant principals; (j) model and hold high expectations for the assistant principal's instructional leadership; (k) identify teacher leaders and provide them with exposure to administrative activities and responsibilities; and (l) keep administrative teams intact as long as possible. The results could assist with redefining and restructuring the roles and responsibilities of assistant principals to include instructional leadership to improve student and school performance.

This research study examines the perceptions of the assistant principal's role in school leadership in an effort to understand the opportunities and constraints inherent in current configurations of the assistant principal position and whether and how those opportunities and constraints might affect an instructional leadership role. The study is organized around the following key research questions: (1) What does the current role of assistant principals look like? (2) How are the role requirements and responsibilities determined and what is the intent? (3) In what ways, or to what extent, can these assigned tasks and responsibilities be seen as preparation for the principalship? (4) What trainings and experiences do assistant principals perceive to be missing from their current role that could assist them in assuming a principal position? This study concluded that although the role of the assistant principal still remains mired in managerial and clerical duties, such as attendance and discipline, the role of today's assistant principal appears to have expanded to one that includes staff supervision, instructional leadership, and curriculum development. Results from this study suggest that while the principal is still a strong influence over the role requirements and responsibilities of assistant principals, this influence is more positive rather than negative. While the respondents identified finance, school law and special education as key areas that are still largely missing from their work assignments, the data from this study showed that principals are currently providing instructional leadership opportunities that allow for their assistant principals to grow their leadership skills and be seen as leaders.
