Zaber  \nBenjamin K. Master  \nSusan M. Gates  \nRAND Corporation  \nLaura S. Hamilton  \nETS  \nPrincipals are the second-largest school-based contributor to student achievement. Interventions focused early in the “pipeline”for identifying and developing effective principals might be a promising strategy for promoting principal effectiveness, yet no prior research has examined measures of principal performance during preservice preparation. We analyze 31 measures of principal practices developed by New Leaders and integrate into their year-long, preservice Aspiring Principals program. We link these measures to administrative data in nine districts to understand how they predict student and principal outcomes after candidate placement. We find associations with gains in student achievement on standardized tests, gains in student attendance, and higher rates of principal retention. We compare our results with studies of measures from licensure exams and evaluation systems.  \nKeywords: administration, educational policy, leadership, principals, econometric analysis, factor analysis, measurements, policy analysis, secondary data analysis  \nprincipals play an essential role in the functioning and improvement of schools. It is estimated that principals are one of the largest school-based influences on student achievement, second only to teachers (Grissom et al., 2021; Louis et al., 2010) . The proposition that principals and other school leaders can affect student achievement both has face validity and has been a subject of interest in scholarly research for four decades (e.g., Brewer, 1993; Dhuey & Smith, 2014; Eberts & Stone, 1988) . principals have a multidimensional job that includes leading the hiring and firing of staff, directing the school’s instructional goals and resources to support the attainment of those instructional goals, and setting the overall vision and culture of the school (Darling-Hammond et al., 2007; Grissom et al.,  \n2021; Hallinger & Heck, 1998; Leithwood & Jantzi, 2005; Leithwood et al., 2004; Waters et al., 2003) .  \nMeasuring performance in this multidimensional role that spans both management and leadership is challenging. With the advent of large-scale administrative data, a body of literature has developed that leverages value-added models to directly estimate principal effects on student test scores (e.g., Branch et al., 2012; Grissom et al., 2015) . This approach dovetails with a policy-driven emphasis on school accountability that focuses on instructional leadership, orthe principal’s role in improving teaching and learning.  \nA parallel movement has arisen to identify and systematically measure principal competencies in  \nFIGURE 1. Timeline to the principalship.  \ncarrying out each dimension (i.e., domain) of the job, and then understand how these competencies relate to policy-relevant outcomes such as principal retention and student achievement. To date, this movement has mostly concentrated on in-service principals due to federal policies such as the Race to the Top competition under the Obama administration, which led states such as Tennessee, pennsylvania, and New Jersey to establish school leader evaluation systems (Grissom et al., 2018; Herrmann & Ross, 2016; McCullough et al., 2016) . This effort continues under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) that allows the use of grant funds for activities that support principals and other school leaders as well as for the measurement and evaluation of school leadershi","cbCaiv8o9Vv6x0Bh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiv8o9Vv6x0Bh","pdf",765097,26,"English","# Introduction\n## Measuring principal effectiveness and policy relevance\n## Measuring preservice practice and selection stages","[{\"question\":\"What question does the study address about preservice principal preparation?\",\"answer\":\"It examines whether measures of principal practice during preservice preparation can predict future principal job performance and related student outcomes after placement.\"},{\"question\":\"How are the 31 measures used in the analysis?\",\"answer\":\"The study integrates 31 measures developed by New Leaders into the year-long Aspiring Principals program, then links them to administrative data from nine districts.\"},{\"question\":\"What outcomes does the research find associations with?\",\"answer\":\"The measures are associated with gains in standardized test achievement, gains in student attendance, and higher rates of principal retention.\"}]","The Relationship Between Measures of Preservice Principal Practice and Future Principal Job Performance - Research Article - Analysis | PDF",1792095467,66]
