The habits of highly effective schools: Analyzing the impact of “Leader in Me” schools in Florida.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

 This paper examines educational outcomes of students engaged in a statewide leadership development program in the state of Florida. Data from more than 25 schools representing a wide range of regional and demographic diversity are analyzed in this longitudinal multi-site embedded case study. Findings from this research point to benefits of incorporating leadership development in the classroom. Furthermore, this study provides further evidence in support of the practice of assessing gains from leadership programs over several years, as the benefits of programmatic activities in educational environments take time to fully develop. Practical significance of the findings and implications are discussed.
