The role of context in shaping principals’ leadership has been operationalized in this study as their allocation of time to three leadership domains. A cross-sectional survey design was utilized to measure the current self-reported practices of intermediate, middle and junior high school principals in the state of Ohio. Findings from this study determined that locale did not have a significant association with the amount of time principals allocate to any of the leadership domains. Secondly, several of the exogenous variables under study were determined to be predictors of how principals allocated their time. Lastly, after controlling for level of bureaucracy and other contextual variables, principals in both urban and suburban locales allocated approximately the same amount of time to the leadership domains.
