You have just become building principal of a school that has a negative school climate, demoralized school 'spirit', and a deep distrust among the school's personnel and students. In fact, various personnel in your school remain confused and angry by last year's deterioration of labor-management negotiations, which resulted in a month-long teacher strike. The board of education and district superintendent has summarized and described this school's problem to you as one of poor internal communication. Although it is true that most of the school's problem is poor internal communication between and within the school's internal publics, the strained relations between the board of education and district superintendent has substantially contributed to the school's poor internal communication. You realize that you must institute in this school a strategic plan of improved internal communication. Describe in detail the strategic plan to improve internal communication you would devise, and explain how you will improve internal relations of the school's personnel. Make sure that your response includes the following internal publics: certified teachers, students, building administration, non-instructional personnel, district superintendent and central office administration, and board of education. To do this, you must use PSEL standards to complete the essay.
