Abstract	This fourth edition of this book is organized around the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium model standards developed specifically for school leaders. The six standards focus on the key issues that inform effective leadership. Attention is given to issues of learning and teaching, and the creation of powerful learning environments. Each standard is supported by a framework of knowledge, dispositions, and performances that provide greater specificity to each standard. (A list of the six standards, along with their critical knowledge, dispositions, and performances, is contained in an appendix.) The book is organized into four parts centered on the six standards and framed with one or two of the standards as the main theme: (1) "Creating a Vision of Leadership and Learning" discusses vision and ethics; (2) "Developing a Positive School Culture" focuses on instructional programs and professional growth; (3) "Managing the Organization" addresses ways to maintain a safe, efficient, and effective learning environment; and (4) "Interacting with the External Environment" discusses community relations and the school within political, social, economic, legal, and cultural contexts. Following each section are a summary, suggested activities for practitioners, and a list of selected readings. (Contains 24 case studies and a subject index.) (WFA)
