The School Psychologist as Leader and Change Agent in a High-Stakes Era
Shriberg, David
Journal of Applied School Psychology, v23 n2 p151-166 Jul 2007
School psychologists are well prepared to provide leadership in an era when gathering and interpreting data is center-stage in education reform. The leadership literature is not well known in school psychology and a summary of major leadership theories pertinent to the practice of school psychology is provided. Strategies for leading change in a high stakes testing climate are provided through case studies of two school psychologists who have assumed leadership roles in advocating for fair, effective, and comprehensive uses of data with children.
