Abstract :
Many school administrators are transitioning
to a shared leadership model consisting of teacher
leaders and administrators to collaborate and make
decisions as a team. This type of model has shown to
raise achievement among students creating a conducive
environment for learning. In our pilot study, we
examined current teacher leaders’ experiences in the
role as a leader on their campus and found there is very
little training for teacher leaders as shown in our study.
We also share a few tips for administrators to help
nurture and build leadership skills in teacher leaders.
