Planning – workshops, orientations, field trips, fundraising activities

Checklists to monitor progress with an assortment of tasks
Resources to proactively plan and execute effective and decisive leadership
A handy checklist for each month offers flexibility for modification and the monthly calendar helps busy administrators avoid reinventing the wheel each year. Also included is a rich resource of sample documents to help with a variety of communication needs: from samples of your summer letter to parents and memos on standardized testing to information and permission forms for programs designed to help children cope with divorce. The Elementary School Principal's Calendar is essential for every principal faced with juggling the varied tasks of school administration.
