Management > ESSAY > Case Study Narrative: Sparrow Middle School (All)
Case Study Narrative It is the evening of July 23, a Tuesday. Moments ago, the school board for the Middleville City School District (MCSD) officially approved your selection as the new principal of ... Sparrow Middle School. You were endorsed for the position after completing three levels of interviews: an initial interview with the assistant superintendent in charge of secondary schools, a formal, schoolbased finalist interview with various stakeholders including teachers, parents, and student representatives, and a final interview with the MCSD superintendent. MCSD is a mid-sized district that educates 31,269 students in 51 schools. This is your first principalship after you served two years as an assistant principal in a different middle school in the district.

What is one formal, reasonable, and immediate request you would like to make to her? Dr. Johnson explained that these questions represented discussion starters for her initial meeting with you as the officially appointed principal of Sparrow. Her questions were intended to help her understand what you knew thus far about the school and the community, and your answers would aid her in helping you frame and actualize your goals for the school.
