Times are tough at Ridgemont High. Students are not performing well on the state assessment. New teachers are coming and going every year; there is very high turnover in the teaching staff. Most school employees seem disgruntled and most have negative outlooks on the schools future. A group of teachers determine that the leadership of the school is at fault for allowing such a negative culture to pervade the school. The teachers believe that the principal herself is too negative and her demeanor has affected the overall climate of the school. Which of the following parties should the group of teachers direct their concern to?
  1. Parents
  2. Other teachers
  3. Superintendent
  4. School board members
Explanation
Answer: C - Superintendent. It would be in the domain of the superintendent to supervise the work of the school’s principal. If a culture and environment problem is occurring at the school, then leadership needs to be examined critically. The teachers concerns should be directed to the district administrators that oversee the principal of the school.
