Editor's Note

Inside the Summer 2019 Issue

Abstract

I am pleased to present the Summer 2019 issue of the Journal of School Administration Research and Development (JSARD), our fourth volume. JSARD publishes scholarly research articles, essays and best practices articles, and commentaries on educational leadership for an audience of K-12 educators, university researchers, and policymakers from around the world. In this new issue, we continue our efforts to maintain a balance between the practical and theoretical this time in the form of one research article, two essays, one best practice article, and one commentary. These articles address various elements of educational leadership from multiple perspectives, but they all address methods of leading a school community to increase student learning.
