Here is a collection of case studies that provide a variety of situations in managing or working with marginal employees in a school system. Managing Marginal School Employees will serve as a primary or companion text for administrator candidates or current administrators that include dilemmas for the student to think about, discuss, and solve. The authors have correlated the topics within this book to the national standards in educational leadership and provide a realistic sampling of the various problems that administrators encounter each day. Included are the problem, case questions, suggested activities, and, following each case, is a set of reflective questions for each chapter. Managing Marginal School Employees is most suitable for graduate courses in the field of educational leadership.
