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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amy E.
