Abstract
The basic problem is what role expectations does the teacher of elementary EMR children think she has compared to what her principal thinks her role should be? Role expectation statements from four areas were considered: (1) Curriculum and Instruction; (2) School and Community Relations; (3) Administration and Organization; (4-) Guidance and Evaluation.
Three specific questions are cited:
(1) Is there consensus for selected role norm items, among teachers of the elementary EMR child?
(2) Is there consensus for selected role norm items among the building principals?
(3) Is there consensus for selected role norm items between the focal and counter groups?
