Open publisher page 8 citations

Abstract

Reverence—generally defined along narrow, sectarian religious lines—is often missing from current conversation about educational leadership. This article seeks to recover and scrutinize reverence to see what value it has for educational leadership. Several examples from preschool through Grade 12 leadership situations are discussed to show how reverence is present or absent in the work of the educational leader and discuss reverence in rituals and ceremonies that unite schools.
