Serving as a new principal is not only demanding, it can also be a lonely job. But successful leadership doesn't happen in a vacuum, and principals need to know from their peers best practices about everything from focusing on instruction to planning fire drills. With this in mind, "Principal" magazine created a virtual roundtable--between veterans and those new to the principalship--to offer some peer-to-peer advice about what to expect in the first few years of running a school. Veteran administrators answer essential questions from novice principals about leading schools.
