Rowman & Littlefield Recruiting Strategies for Public Schools
Author Herbert Pandiscio contends that most school districts fail to adhere to the highest ethical standards when employing public school teachers and administrators. Here, he highlights the many ways in which recruiting efforts are compromised by human relations departments and others who are in a position to influence employment decisions in public schools. Recruiting Strategies for Public Schools is both a guideline for action and a caution to those who have failed or who may fail to create a level recruiting field for candidates. It is about honor, about a promise to respect all candidates regardless of race, color, gender, ethnicity, national origin, religion, or other persuasions. This book is about the strength of superintendents and governing boards to withstand the pressures of patronage, favoritism, and other unethical influences, both from without and within the system. Recruiting Strategies for Public Schools, a follow-up to Pandiscio's book, Job Hunting in Education, is a plea to recruiters to deal honorably with those seeking employment, for to do otherwise denies students the services of the most outstanding teachers and administrators. This book is a necessary read for school superintendents and governing boards.
