This toolkit includes the following separate sections: (1) Selection Preparation Guide; (2) Day-of-Interview Tools; (3) Candidate Rating Tools; and (4) Candidate Comparison and Decision Tools. Each of the sections is designed to be used at different stages of the selection process. The first section provides a list of competencies that would distinguish between very successful leaders and the rest in a school turnaround situation. The second section describes tools that are designed for use during the leader candidate interview. These tools are designed to be used in tandem with the Selection Preparation Guide, which provides an overview of the selection process. The third section provides a scoring sheet that is designed to help select school leaders who will be successful in a turnaround school--a school that needs to move from very low performance to high performance quickly. The fourth section offers guidelines for choosing among candidates. Appended are: (1) Leader Competency Rating Levels; and (2) Turnaround Actions: Consistent Cross-Sector Findings. (Contains 8 footnotes.) [Contributors include Lucy M. Steiner, Emily Ayscue Hassel, Bryan Hassel, Eli Valsing and Sarah Crittenden.
