| Abstract | This study sought to examine the underlying issues and perceptions of sitting male and female superintendents in order to add to the current literature on feminism in the K-12 school setting. Specifically, this study sought to examine the perceptions of currently employed superintendents about how they experienced the intersection of gender and leadership in relation to the organization of their administrative structure. Two focus groups and fourteen one-on-one interviews provided a thorough understanding of the lived experiences of male and female participants. Ten general findings from this study exemplify the differences between the lived experiences of male and female superintendents, the hidden structures that allow for or impede advancement, the strong determining factors of upward mobility in public school districts, and the prevalence and importance of school district provided growth opportunities. In addition, the obstacles that both men and women might face in the future on their path to the superintendency were acknowledged. Finally, parenthood, gendered behaviors, and visibility were also factors that contributed significantly to the lived experiences of the superintendents in the study. This study sought to provide the foundation and open the door for future research on feminism, leadership, and gender in the K-12 setting.
