        abstract = {Schools were nominated for inclusion in the study by the author and her colleagues who had worked with initiatives that emphasized the characteristics of high leadership capacity schools. The 15 schools that were chosen for participation in the study included 7.1 elementary schools, one junior high school, and three high schools (one of which was a charter school). Eight of the schools previously were low-performing schools located in urban areas, four were racially and ethnically diverse schools located in suburban areas, one was a non-diverse suburban school, and two schools were located in poor, rural communities. The primary investigators included the schools' principals, who worked with staff members, directors of initiatives, external coaches, and the author. A set of open-ended questions invited participants to describe the leadership capacity of their schools, including obstacles and sustainability. In addition, two extensive conversations were held between primary investigators and individuals familiar with leadership capacity, yet not directly involved in the study. During the first conversation, the investigators presented their schools by describing the context in which they operated, their accomplishments, and their struggles. In the second conversation, investigators responded to a rough draft of the study, noting patterns, making inferences, and suggesting conclusions. }
