To my first teachers, my parents, Leroy Alexander and Lucy Alexander; and my extended family, many who were also teachers and principals. If it were not for them and their example of being a part of a community while helping to educate it, this book would not exist.
To all the teachers, principals, and auxiliary personnel who work tirelessly day after day in the sometimes difficult and chaotic environment of struggling schools. Thank you for your dedication to our children. It is my hope that this book will assist future principals in their effort to create a positive learning environment in their own school.
To Carlie Wall for her assistance in preparation of the manuscript.
To my family who support me with love and encouragement every day.
