Case Study Analysis on Human Relations. Prepare a 700-900 word response (please phrase your answers in third person) based on the questions related to the study “Human Relations: The Case of the New Hire found in Chapter 6 (pg. 189) of Fundamental Concepts of Educational Leadership. (see below) Case Studies Human Relations: The Case of the New Hires Valerie Rizzo has just been appointed the new principal of the East Ruxton Middle School. East Ruxton is a city of approximately 20,000 persons serving as a marketing and light manufacturing center for the two adjacent rural counties. The city school district at one time had been one of the outstanding programs in the state for a community of its size. However, over the past decade, that reputation began to slip as changes in the economy caused reductions in the tax base and thus cutbacks in the schools’ budgets and services. The superintendent and current administration have all held their positions for a number of years, with the junior administrator having seven years of service. The teaching staff also have tended to stay in place. In the middle school, only two of the teaching faculty have less than five years’ tenure. When she was hired, Valerie was told by the superintendent that the most recent school board election had brought in three new persons, and that the balance of voting power on the new board lies with them. The new members ran on a platform of reform and upgrading for the schools, and they are looking to Valerie as the new administrator to spearhead change in her school. The new members are hoping that changes in the middle school will provide an example that will influence the rest of the district. Questions 1. If you were Valerie Rizzo, what steps would you take in the first 30 days of your incumbency as the middle school principal to introduce the change-related issues discussed above while establishing effective human relations with your building staff? 2. How will you approach the issues discussed above with your administrative peers across the district? 3. What model(s) of human needs and leadership discussed in this chapter will you use to guide you in your new role? Why? 4. Prepare an action plan for yourself for the first half-year that will allow you to begin the job, operate your school, and initiate appropriate changes. Be prepared to discuss the means by which you will motivate your staff to meet the challenges to come, and explain why you are selecting those particular means. Use the questions as a guide only. Do not list the questions within the paper. Use them to write a thoughtful and reflective (research based) paper on what Valerie’s first year as principal at the middle school should look like.
