Abstract:
The dynamic conflict and confrontation that too often exists between heads and trustees of Jewish day schools is the primary cause of administrative turnover and instability in those educational institutions. School heads, trustees, parents, teachers, and the larger Jewish community all play a role in sustaining this troubling dynamic. This article presents recommendations for facilitating collaboration between professional and lay leaders in Jewish day schools.
