As a teacher leader, I felt I was straddling between two worlds- but not really in either. I wasn’t a classroom teacher- but I wasn’t a principal. Identifying and Growing Internal Leaders helps us navigate that divide and offers practical and specific job targets, professional development and evaluation to clearly reflect and support this emerging and critical role. -- Julie Davis, Ed.D. Executive Director, Ohio Association of Elementary School Administrators
