Description
Résumé:This qualitative study explored perceptions of leadership within the Maryland Association of Christian Schools (MACS) concerning the lack of Black administrators\u2014specifically, the perceptions of school board members, school leaders, and the founding documents. Original surveys, interviews, and a document review provided four major themes. Above all, MACS member schools prioritize the mission and draw leadership applicants from an almost entirely monochromatic applicant pool. Most MACS school leaders claimed an acceptance of colorblindness yet saw the need to develop cultural awareness. To reach their utmost potential, MACS member schools would benefit from diversification of leadership.
