Abstract Details

This study sought to explore the personal perceptions of the leadership behaviors of public elementary school principals in Ohio whose schools had consistently demonstrated Above Expected Growth on the Value-Added measure and how these behaviors may contribute to the growth of their students. Research was conducted via a two-stage multi-methods study, in which survey data was first collected using Hallinger’s Principal Instructional Management Rating Scale (PIMRS) and then followed with interviews, which were intended to present a deeper understanding of the principals’ perceptions of their leadership practices that contribute to the growth of the students in their schools. Principals indicated varying levels of frequency with which they engage in the leadership practices in the PIMRS, as well as a variation in their employment of leadership styles (transactional, transformational, instructional, pedagogical).
