,Section A - Leadership AND Ethical Decision-making
Q1.
In a district facing declining enrollment, which policy lever is most likely to produce fiscal
sustainability without compromising student equity?
A. Implementing a weighted student funding B. Consolidating school sites based solely
formula that follows the child on operational cost per pupil
C. Reducing central office staff across all D. Increasing class sizes uniformly across
departments proportionally all grade levels
Correct: A - Implementing a weighted student funding formula that follows the child
Rationale:Weighted student funding aligns resources with student needs, preserving equity
while adapting to enrollment shifts. Consolidation based only on cost ignores equity, and
uniform cuts or class-size increases disproportionately harm vulnerable populations.
Q2.
A school leader must choose a decision-making model for a controversial curriculum
change. Which approach best balances stakeholder input with timely implementation?
A. Delegating the decision to a faculty B. Using a consensus-based process with
committee with full autonomy all stakeholders, allowing unlimited time
C. Applying a participative model where D. Making the decision unilaterally and
input is sought but the leader retains final communicating it after the fact
authority
Correct: C - Applying a participative model where input is sought but the leader retains
final authority
Rationale:Participative leadership secures buy-in while preserving decisional efficiency. Full
delegation or unlimited consensus can stall progress; unilateral action undermines trust and
commitment.
Q3.
Which data interpretation is most defensible when evaluating the impact of a new reading
intervention on school-wide achievement?
A. Comparing post-intervention scores to B. Using a quasi-experimental design with a
pre-intervention scores without a control matched comparison school
group
C. Relying solely on teacher anecdotal D. Analyzing only the top quartile of student
reports of student progress growth to show success
Page 3
, Section A - Leadership AND Ethical Decision-making
Correct: B - Using a quasi-experimental design with a matched comparison school
Rationale:A matched comparison school controls for confounding variables, strengthening
causal inference. Without a control group or with cherry-picked data, claims of effectiveness
are weak and potentially misleading.
Q4.
Under ESSA, which state-level action is most consistent with the law's accountability
requirements?
A. Eliminating all standardized testing to B. Using only graduation rates as the sole
reduce burden indicator of school quality
C. Incorporating multiple measures including D. Allowing districts to set their own
academic progress, English learner accountability standards independent of
proficiency, and school climate state oversight
Correct: C - Incorporating multiple measures including academic progress, English
learner proficiency, and school climate
Rationale:ESSA mandates a multifaceted accountability system with academic and
non-academic indicators. Eliminating testing or using a single measure violates federal
requirements, and district autonomy is constrained by state plans.
Q5.
A principal wants to improve teacher collective efficacy. Which leadership practice is most
directly supported by Bandura's social cognitive theory?
A. Providing individual professional B. Facilitating collaborative planning time
development on classroom management where teachers observe and discuss
successful practices
C. Increasing teacher salaries to enhance D. Implementing a merit pay system based
job satisfaction on student test scores
Correct: B - Facilitating collaborative planning time where teachers observe and discuss
successful practices
Rationale:Collective efficacy is built through vicarious experiences and social persuasion.
Observing peers' success and discussing strategies strengthens shared beliefs, whereas
individual PD or financial incentives do not directly target efficacy.
Q6.
In a school with chronic absenteeism, which intervention aligns best with a multi-tiered
system of supports (MTSS) framework?
