Abstract
This study determined what principals need to successfully lead community schools and the extent principals are prepared to lead them. The authors of this qualitative study collected data from a broad sample of community school experts, principals, and directors to develop a list of necessary qualities for community school principals. Although the qualities were reflected in the Professional Standards for Educational Leaders, practitioners appeared to struggle with operationalizing their espoused commitments to equity and meaningful community engagement into action. The authors partially attribute the disconnect between beliefs and behavior to a lack of coherent preparation that addresses community equity literacy.
