The importance of positive board/superintendent relationships cannot be understated. The need to balance competing political pressures to create the best possible learning opportunities for students is ever present. Most importantly, board/superintendent relationships should be cultivated with openness and transparency among each other and the public.

This book is a resource for both board members and superintendents, and explores issues related to the board/superintendent relationship and superintendent hiring practices. The book includes contributions from experienced and new superintendents and board members on a wide range of topics that boards and superintendents must navigate together successfully in order to move districts in a positive direction for students, staff, parents, and communities.

This book is unique in that the intended audience is both boards and superintendents. It is not a resource wherein "experts" tell board members how they should conduct board business, nor a resource that informs superintendents how to "manage" school boards. Instead, the book promotes and encourages a productive working relationship and partnership that moves school districts forward in a positive manner.
