Abstract
- This paper takes the position that women can and should be represented as administrators in greater proportion to their numbers in public education, and that concrete steps must be taken to remedy the present imbalance. The paper is based on material from professional publications dealing with sexism and the role of women in education; conferences of educators and interviews with participants in these conferences; interviews with people in government agencies, private and professional groups, and several school systems involved in reform efforts; reports on specific school systems; reports of special task forces; and on events on the federal level and in selected States. The publication documents the virtual absence of women from administrative positions in public education, explores reasons for the declining percentages of women in public education, and reviews and recommends ways to begin reversing this trend.
