Princeton High School: A Needs Analysis. Consulting Report.
Jacobs, T. O.; And Others
This report presents a description of the activities and findings of a research team providing consulting services to Princeton High School in the areas of classroom management, leadership and organizational development, and race relations. The predominately middle-class white school was merging with a predominately black working-class school. Existing and anticipated problem areas were to be identified in the analysis. The team approached its task by fragmenting and then interviewing personnel who were thought most likely to be able to provide information in each of the team member's area of expertise. These areas included management, leadership, and small-group effectiveness; instructional methodology and contingency management technique applications; cross-cultural and cross-ethnic values, goals, and aspirations content. The findings consist mainly of what the team found to be the existing perceptions among teachers, students, and administrators regarding their relative roles and how these roles are performed. The section on findings is followed by recommendations for possible changes. (Author/MLF)
