Board Emphasis
School Administrator, April 2019
What roles do school boards want their superintendents to give the greatest emphasis to in their work?
According to AASA’s mid-decade national survey, the superintendents said their boards placed the highest emphasis on these responsibilities (in order beginning with the greatest): effective communicator, problem solver, fiscal oversight leader, operational manager and community leader.
The order largely did not vary by enrollment size of school district.
