why you'll love it

When it comes to leading a campus, the principal is charged with five areas that matter most: instructional leadership, human capital, executive leadership, school culture, and strategic operations. Anchored in the Texas Principal Standards, the Leadership Field Guide assists the principal in narrowing the breadth of their daily work and choosing areas to prioritize for growth.

The Leadership Field Guide supports principals with awareness, insight, questions, and action plan templates that provide:

• Explicit connections between the Texas Principal Standards and the principal’s daily practices and demands
• Practical, actionable steps to help the principal get started and stay on track throughout the year
• Recommendations for data tools, professional development, resources, and ways to support and monitor campus goals

what you get

The Leadership Field Guide addresses all five standards as well as the indicators within each of the Texas Principal Standards with: 

• Key expectations of the principal
• Specific evidence (components and practices) of successful campuses
• Alignment with T-PESS domains and Effective Schools Framework levers
• Sustainable questions for reflection that can be shared with the staff to create shared leadership and focus the work
• Action plan templates (in Word) with suggestions to jump-start your own campus action plan spotlighting three crucial areas when working with staff, students, families, and communities: creating focus; building confidence and competence in the staff; and building trust with all stakeholders involved in the school’s success

The Leadership Field Guide is available for individual campus administrators and is accessed through the lead4ward dashboard.
