Scenario Experience

For each scenario, select your level of experience and briefly describe it. If you have no direct experience, describe how you would approach it.

Scenario A

The founding head leaves abruptly. Staff morale is low, the board is divided, and families are leaving.

Scenario B

The school is mid-accreditation when the head departs. The visiting team arrives in four months. Records are disorganized.

Scenario C

Years of permissive leadership have eroded the culture. Montessori fidelity is low. Families are confused about what they enrolled in.

The board has been overstepping governance, micromanaging operations. The previous head never pushed back.
