5 Why the Focus on Principal Effectiveness?
Although many factors contribute to student learning, leadership is the second most powerful school-level factor in student learning. (Hallinger & Heck, 1996; Horng, Klasick, & Loeb, 2010)

6 Why the Focus on Principal Effectiveness?
Strong school leadership is essential for Cultivating high-performing schools Attracting and retaining high-quality teaching staff Building community support for education efforts (Clifford, Behrstock-Sherratt, & Fetters, 2012)

7 Why the Emphasis on Evaluating Principal Practice?
Evaluation practices vary greatly across schools and districts Professional standards (such ISSLC and/or state standards) often not aligned with evaluation practices Little empirical evidence that current evaluation models and instruments are effective or technically sound (WestEd, 2011)

8 Why the Emphasis on Evaluating Principal Practice?
The professional literature highlights the importance of principal evaluation in changing practice from the historical emphasis on managerial responsibilities to more recent expectations that principals are instructional leaders, who are responsible and accountable for student learning. (WestEd, 2011)

Lucky: Good results with no understanding of the reasons Replication of success not probable Leading: Good results with clear understanding of the reasons Replication very probable Losing: Poor results with no understanding of the reasons Replication neither probable nor desirable Learning: Poor results with clear understanding of the reasons Replication of mistakes not probable Organizational Results Antecedents of Excellence
