Marshalling Community Leadership To Support the Public Schools. Fastback Series, No. 35.
Estes, Nolan
This booklet examines the problem of gaining public support for the schools. It examines the leadership role of the school superintendent; discusses integrity, accountability, and decentalization; and explains some methods of building support among community leaders. The publication closes with a summary of the steps taken by the Dallas school district to educate their superintendents and other municipal decisionmakers about the unforeseen consequences of previous decisions, on the interconnections of future actions, and on the necessity for cooperation.
