This booklet is intended to guide elementary and secondary school principals in preparing to cope with a teacher strike. Because each strike is different, major emphasis of the booklet is on anticipating common strike situations and on developing a local District Strike Plan. Guidelines are listed under a variety of topical headings, including general guidelines, relationships with teachers, relationships with parents, administrative relationships, relationships with classified personnel, relationships with students, relationships with police, activity program problems, and the administrator's personal behavior and attitudes.
