They truly understand the role of today′s school leader in the classroom, the school, and the community. Together, they have boiled down complex ideas to practical solutions that leaders can learn from and apply in their daily routines. Through years of research, new learning, and proven experience, they have modeled the way for leaders. This book communicates the need for today′s school leaders to develop action plans that produce results. As they say, it is not a matter of ′either/or′ but rather ′and′ when addressing modern societal demands. Their guidance and reflections provide a road map for schools that will create positive student outcomes for the students they serve.</em>--Joshua Garcia, Deputy Superintendent<br><br><em>As educators we are so fortunate that Pam Robbins and Harvey Alvy continue to update</em> The Principal′s Companion<em>. It has always been one of the must read books I refer to principals, and this latest edition makes it even more important and helpful to principals who face one of the toughest jobs in education today. <br/> <br/> Pam and Harvey combine research, practitioner expertise, and personal experiences to provide principals with a resource that will serve them well throughout their career. The topics, insights, and reflection questions make it a text that principals will find themselves returning to when they are confronting a new challenge or opportunity and seeking new information and insights. <br/> <br/> Give the gift of</em> The Principal′s Companion <em>to your principals. You will have given them a compact resource that touches their most pressing issues with suggestions, insights, and findings grounded in research, experience, and practice.</em>--Stephanie Hirsh, Executive Director<br><br><i>The revised and expanded edition of </i>The Principal's Companion<i> will be a welcome addition to any principal's professional library. The authors have crafted a </i>vade mecum<i> for the thoughtful, engaged... and busy! ...principal. This is a user-friendly, accessible, and holistic compilation of educational philosophy, solid research, and practical, tested methodologies. It can be read from start to finish with great benefit. But due to its thoughtful structure, one can also dive into it from time to time for inspiration, expert opinion or a bit of challenge. Drs. Alvy and Robbins have made a wonderful contribution to our profession with this, their latest collaboration.</i>--David Chojnacki, Executive Director<br>
