Current Issue: Volume 20, Issue 1 (2025) Spring/Summer 2025 Continuing A Legacy of Leadership

The theme for the Spring/Summer 2025 issue is "Continuing A Legacy of Leadership." Education has always been a cornerstone of progress and prosperity in any society. For decades, visionary leaders have shaped the educational systems in ways that have empowered generations of students to achieve success and contribute meaningfully to their communities. The legacy of educational leadership is one of commitment, innovation, and advocacy. However, the work is far from complete. As we face new challenges—technological advances, shifting demographics, and the growing demand for equity—it is essential to continue this legacy, adapting to new realities while remaining grounded in the fundamental principles that have long guided the pursuit of educational excellence. In addition to some of the most recent research on educational leadership topics that will inform aspiring and current leaders of impactful leadership practices that foster continuous improvement, prioritization of the well-being of students and staff and embracing innovation while staying true to core educational values, we also include a homage to our 2025 Outstanding Dissertation of the Year award winner and research on the preparation of educational leaders. We hope you find this issue informative as you continue your work towards creating a legacy of exemplary leadership.
