About the Book

101 Tips for School District Leadership contains essential tips to enhance success of school district leadership. The writing respects the busy schedule of a superintendent and the need for material that can be read and put in use quickly. A superintendent could start applying the advice given almost immediately without having to finish the book first. The 101 tips is a direct and practical approach in covering positive techniques for success.

Most central office leaders had to learn on the job or borrow from books written for the business/management sector. These 101 tips are too important to be left to chance learning. All the essentials of the superintendence are covered in this book.

"Jerry Jones has successfully drawn upon both his experiences as a school administrator and his knowledge of educational leadership theory to create a book that is equally interesting and practical."

-Dr. Martha Dean, Executive Director, WVASA

"The Essential Guidebook is an excellent resource for the school district administrator. The 101 "Tips" are a common sense approach to daily issues. Dr. Jones has provided an easy to read prescription to successful educational leadership."

-Manny Arvon, Superintendent, Berkeley County Schools, WV
