Accountability measures enacted with the passing of the No Child Left Behind Law of 2002 include federal and state sanctions for school districts not making adequate yearly progress on state assessments. Typically these results are published locally, which only increases the perception that many American schools are failing to prepare students for the future. International comparisons as reported by the Program for International Student Assessments (PISA) from 2012, the most recent reported data, indicate that the United States lags behind other countries, many of which spend far less on educating their student populations. Often educators and in particular school leaders are scapegoated in the absence of any other solutions to educating American youth.  \nMarzano and Waters (2009) provide more promising evidence related to American schools. Their meta-analysis, which sought to uncover deeper understandings of the underlying relationships between district leadership and student achievement revealed, “when district leaders are carrying out their leadership responsibilities effectively, student achievement across the district is positively affected”(p. 5) . Delving deeper into effective leadership, Marzano and Waters identified five district (superintendent) level responsibilities with a statistically (p\u003C.05) correlation with average student academic achievement. The five responsibilities are “(1) ensuring collaborative goal setting, (2) establishing nonnegotiable goals for achievement and instruction, (3) creating board alignment with and support of district goals,(4) monitoring achievement and in","cbCaig8CaXQarItb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaig8CaXQarItb","pdf",293810,"English","# Introduction\n# Leadership responsibilities and student achievement\n## District-level responsibilities linked to achievement\n# Accountability pressures and board governance\n## Hiring, monitoring, and performance expectations","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the study address about American public schools?\",\"answer\":\"The study addresses the dismal media perception of American public schools and the added scrutiny created by accountability measures, including the No Child Left Behind Law of 2002.\"},{\"question\":\"Which standards do the school board presidents support for superintendent preparation?\",\"answer\":\"The findings indicate these presidents fully support ISLLC and ELCC standards as the foundation for superintendent preparation programs.\"},{\"question\":\"How do female and male school board presidents differ in their perceptions?\",\"answer\":\"Female board presidents report stronger perceptions than their male counterparts regarding the importance of several factors related to superintendent preparation expectations.\"}]","Leading into the Future - Perceptions of School Board Presidents on the Essential Knowledge and Skills for Superintendent Preparation Programs | PDF",1792093333,48]
