This case study is presented for use with graduate students in educational administration. The intent is to further those students’ preparation to deal with cultural and organizational change, along with the examination of the role of the administrative team as instructional leaders. One of the primary roles of the building principal is to be the instructional leader and create a climate that is conducive to learning. The scenario for this case is built around a negative atmosphere that will require campus-level administrators to transform the campus into a high-performing school in a brief period of time.
