The Leadership Academy - an independent, not-for-profit organization - represents the centerpiece of New York City’s attempts to expand its principal labor pool while at the same time increasing the autonomy and day-to-day responsibilities of its school leaders. In particular, the Leadership Academy seeks to prepare principals for schools marked by high student poverty, low achievement and frequent staff turnover - schools in which principal vacancies had been historically hard to fill. Aspiring Principals (APP), the Leadership Academy’s pre-service principal preparation program, is a 14-month intensive program involving three components. This report represents the first systematic comparison of student outcomes in schools led by APP graduates after three years to those in comparable schools led by other new principals. We provide both a straightforward comparison of average achievement in these two groups of schools, and in efforts to isolate a potential program effect, we conduct a formal regression analysis that accounts for pre-existing differences in student performance and characteristics. We also report key differences between the school leaders themselves and the schools in which they were placed. All principals in this study were installed in 2004-05 or 2005-06, remained in the same school for three or more consecutive years, and led their school through the 2007-08 school year.","PeriodicalId":249319,"journal":{"name":"NYU Wagner School of Public Service Research Paper Series","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130453760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The law's supporters hoped that it would spark innovation and reduce welfare use; critics feared that it would lead to cuts in benefits and to widespread suffering. Whether the reform succeeds or fails depends largely on what happens in big cities, where poverty and welfare receipt are most concentrated. This report - one of a series from MDRC's Project on Devolution and Urban Change - examines the specific ways in which reform unfolded in Philadelphia. The study uses field research, state records, surveys and ethnographic interviews of welfare recipients, and indicators of social and economic trends to assess TANF's implementation and effects. Because of the strong economy and ample funding for services in the late 1990s, the study captures welfare reform in the best of times but focuses on the poorest families and neighborhoods.","PeriodicalId":249319,"journal":{"name":"NYU Wagner School of Public Service Research Paper Series","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129013477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
