An Extra Pair of Hands: Exploring Contributions of Assistant Principals to Student Behavioral Outcomes
In Event: AERA Roundtable Session 14
In Roundtable Session: Leading for Student Health and Well-Being
Abstract
The assistant principalship is often viewed as a stepping stone to the principalship, but this framing of the position has resulted in the potential contributions of assistant principals being overlooked. This study utilizes the rich administrative data in Tennessee to explore the unique contributions of assistant principals to student behavioral outcomes. Results from this analysis suggest that students, especially Black students, have improved outcomes when they have an assistant principal.
