Public School Principals’ Top Three Most Important Education Goals, by Charter Status and School Level

In the 2015–16 NTPS, public school principals were asked to identify their top three most important education goals from a list of academic and social-emotional priorities. Overall, 72 percent selected “Building basic literacy skills,” 69 percent chose “Encouraging academic excellence,” and 54 percent placed “Promoting good work habits and self-discipline” as one of their top three goals.

For most goals asked about, principals at traditional public schools and public charter schools gave similar ratings; however, there was some variation within academic goals. Overall, principals in both traditional public and public charter schools consistently ranked “Building basic literacy skills,” “Encouraging academic excellence,” and “Promoting good work habits and self-discipline” as one of their most important goals.
