Managerial leadership practices were investigated under three categories personnel management, student management, and finance management. Elementary charter school principals provided positive feedback for having small size schools.  \nNCPEA Education Leadership Review, Vol. 17, No. 1– May, 2016  \nISSN: 1532-0723 © 2016 National Council of Professors of Educational Administration  \nIntroduction  \nThe first charter school, City Academy in St. Paul, began operation in 1992 after Minnesota passed the first charter school law in 1991 as noted by the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library (2014) . In the subsequent years, the number of states passing charter school laws grew and according to The Center for Education Reform (2015) only eight states, Alabama, Kentucky, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont, and West Virginia, were left without a charter law as of 2015. Maloney, Sheehan, and Rainey (2011) reported that the first charter school legislation in Texas was passed in 1995 and the first charter schools were opened in 1996. According to a report posted on the Texas Education Agency (TEA) website, the number of charter school districts in operation as of the 2015-2016 school year was 182 (TEA, 2015) .  \nCharter schools are a school of choice and a part of school reform that has grown substantially with a greater demand every year, according to The National Alliance for Public Charter Schools (NAPCS) dashboard (2014) . The number of charter schools has reached 6,440 nationwide, with a growth rate of 7.3%, serving more than two million (2,513,634) students in the United States during the 2013-14 school year. In Texas, 689 charter campuses were in operation during the 2013-14 school year along with a growth rate of 7.9% . Texas charter schools served 238,091 students with 71.1% low socioeconomic status and 58.2% Hispanic population.  \nSince demand for charter schools was linked to charter school growth new roles were defined for charter school principals. Robenstine (2000) discussed the role of a charter school principal as manager within a school choice context and added that managerial roles of charter schools principals would require them to be customer focused. Thus, charter school principals make decisions responsive to parents and the needs of the community for the survival of their schools and their managerial decisions are driven by efficiency and cost effectiveness due to competitiveness. Therefore the purpose of this study is to explore elementary charter school principal’s perceptions oftheir managerial roles.  \nLiterature Review  \nA report by Alberta Education (2009) indicated that as schools have become larger, the roles of principals have been transformed regarding leadership and managerial duties. These new roles of school principals have included being more involved in developing the school mission and goal, setting priorities, managing human resources and school finances, developing and managing school improvement plans, reporting system requirements, maintaining public and community relations, being accountable for educational outcomes, gathering information, and making data-based decisions. Principal’s managerial roles are a part of the leadership dimension of a school principal.  \nLunenburg (2010) investigated leadership functions of principals in general. He classified management skills into three categories, technical, human, and conceptual. He noted that effective principals designed their actions to ","cbCaimSgWsbJVNSh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimSgWsbJVNSh","pdf",324612,11,"English","# Introduction\n## Charter school policy growth and principal role changes\n# Literature Review\n## Principal leadership and management functions\n## Charter school principal roles in comparison\n## Global experiences and challenges for principals","[{\"question\":\"What is the focus of the study on elementary charter school principals?\",\"answer\":\"The study explores elementary charter school principals’ perceptions of their managerial roles, examining how they practice managerial leadership.\"},{\"question\":\"Which three areas of management are investigated in the research?\",\"answer\":\"The research investigates personnel management, student management, and finance management as three core categories of managerial leadership practices.\"},{\"question\":\"What feedback do principals provide about small-size charter schools?\",\"answer\":\"Elementary charter school principals gave positive feedback about having small-size schools.\"}]","A Phenomenological Narrative Study - Elementary Charter School Principals’ Managerial Roles | PDF",1792093355,28]
