This article reports the results for the first cycle of an action research study about a district–university partnership. Two district facilitators and two university facilitators co-constructed a principal preparation program for an inner-city school district to help prepare the next generation of building leaders. Twenty-two students participated in the 15-month nontraditional program. The study found that in preparing first-time school leaders, the most helpful experiences were those that developed self-understanding and readiness for the role change. New instructional techniques and the full-time residency facilitated this earning. It also found that the partnership, though providing new and exciting opportunities to deviate from the traditional preparation model, needed further development.

In 10 years of semiannual voice clinics held in a metropolitan school district, 249 cases were reviewed. Attending otolaryngologists diagnosed vocal nodules in 40% of the cases. Chronic laryngitis and thickened cords were also frequently noted. One third of the cases had concomitant allergies, ear, and/or upper respiratory problems. Direct voice therapy was recommended for 65% of those attending voice clinics. The data on sex and age were consistent with previous research. Family voice history and prognosis are also discussed.

The purpose of this article is to show how one urban school district dealt with a perceived need to improve its effectiveness in diagnosing and treating voice disorders. The local school district established semiannual voice clinics. Students aged 5-18 were referred, screened, and selected for the clinics if they appeared to have a chronic voice problem. The specific procedures used in setting up the voice clinics and the subsequent changes made over a 10-year period are presented.
