Surveys and interviews with 13 students who had graduated from high schools implementing standards-based learning and who had completed their first academic semester at a midsize, private, Midwest university revealed no detrimental effects. The most frequently mentioned transition difficulties related to social issues and time management. Implications for implementing high school grading reforms are discussed.","PeriodicalId":39340,"journal":{"name":"NASSP Bulletin","volume":"104 1","pages":"257 - 269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/0192636520975862","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49280736","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}

Findings suggest principals’ reactions to competition shifted based on their perceptions of their status and competitive advantage in the market. These perceptual changes were the result of interactions with parents/guardians, staff, teachers, and students. This study has implications for how principals’ perceptions over time may affect engagement in competitive markets.","PeriodicalId":39340,"journal":{"name":"NASSP Bulletin","volume":"104 1","pages":"270 - 291"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/0192636520975855","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49229410","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}

{"title":"In This Issue","authors":"Pamela S. Salazar","doi":"10.1177/0192636520979861","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/0192636520979861","url":null,"abstract":"Highly effective school leaders focus on learning and the impact of teaching. They empower teachers and other instructional personnel to support learning and create a positive learning culture where everyone learns and works together on behalf of students. They apply best practices to student learning. Articles in this issue of Bulletin offer unique ideas for principals to consider as they think about their work. It is my hope that readers will find new perspectives on how schooling can be improved and how the exercise of leadership influences this improvement. Principals have been challenged with the impact of Covid-19 on students’ academic and mental well-being. In the lead article, researchers Pincus, Hannor-Walker, TeShaunda, Wright, and Justice highlight the importance of using school counselors to provide mental health counseling assisting with the social and emotional needs of students during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The authors offer practical applications and useful strategies that secondary principals can employ to create a systemic approach for social and emotional prevention and intervention during and after the pandemic. The second article also casts a spotlight on some of the changes in schooling brought about by the onset of the corona-virus pandemic. In particular, due to the transition to online learning, educators have been compelled to rethink how they grade and report learning. One alternative grading approach that educators have considered is standards-based grading (SBG). In this study, researchers Guskey, Townsley, and Buckley sought to determine if the implementation of SBG in high school classes affects students’ transition to university learning environments. Findings suggest that high schools in the sample were not implementing SBG with high levels of fidelity. However, to the extent SBG was being implemented, there was no evidence that the practice was having a negative impact on students’ transition to higher education. Principals will find the discussion instructive and beneficial for leveraging standardsbased grading as a clearer description of students’ performance by separating achievement and non-cognitive factors.","PeriodicalId":39340,"journal":{"name":"NASSP Bulletin","volume":"104 1","pages":"239 - 240"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/0192636520979861","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41689228","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}

Through interviews with three rural high school principals, we look to the influence of context on decision making through a study of the principals’ articulations of the role of context in supporting or hindering their work for marginalized children. Findings from this study point to the culture of the community in which the school was situated and the challenges sometimes associated with the community as the most mentioned meso factor that guided the principals’ practice. The micro context of the leader’s personal story was a testament to what they valued and how they enacted these values as a leader for social justice. The study concludes with a model which reconceptualizes the macro, meso, and micro relationships not as a directional relationship that indicates the influence of one context onto another, but as a structural bond suggesting interdependency.","PeriodicalId":39340,"journal":{"name":"NASSP Bulletin","volume":"104 1","pages":"292 - 313"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/0192636520976865","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48771206","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}

Due to social isolation and adverse childhood experiences, there are concerns of suicidality, technology addiction, and school safety as schools attempt to transition to a state of normalcy in the months to come. This crisis will require coordinated efforts to assist students in not only getting back on track academically but also in helping students cope with the trauma they have and are continuing to experience. As a result, insights from school counselors can be used to obtain a better understanding of the social and emotional effects of COVID-19 by collaborating with administrators to emphasize using school counselors as a mental health provider in schools. The authors highlight school counselors’ mental health training and their role in combating this issue and provide practical applications that can employed to create a systemic approach for social and emotional prevention and intervention during and after the pandemic.","PeriodicalId":39340,"journal":{"name":"NASSP Bulletin","volume":"104 1","pages":"241 - 256"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/0192636520975866","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43077627","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}
