My Study Reveals Board Presidents Are Rubber Stamps for Superintendents.

Feistritzer, C. Emily

American School Board Journal, v176 n6 p19-20 Jun 1989

A 52-item survey sent to 2,197 school board presidents was responded to by 1,217 (55 percent) of the executives. The results suggest that the longer they serve on school boards, the more inclined the presidents are to follow their superintendents' lead and the less inclined they are to support school reform.
