The Principal's Role in Helping Middle Level Students at Risk.

Harris, Sharon

Schools in the Middle, p3-5 Fall 1991

Principals can help at-risk students in the middle school by identifying them early; scheduling them with counselors and teachers who can meet their needs; keeping in close contact with teachers about student grades; and offering opportunities for academic success. Finally, the entire staff must support the philosophy that failure is not an option. (MLF)
