Abstract
The purpose of this case is to illuminate the nuances of one of the most important roles on a school campus—the role of the assistant principal; with a focus on Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) women assistant principals. This case is for educational leaders interested in understanding the power dynamics between an assistant principal and multiple stakeholders, the nuances of the role of assistant principal, creating opportunities for networking and professional development, and viewing the assistant principal as an asset and integral part of the success of the school. These efforts and others are necessary to ensure the retention of BIPOC women serving as assistant principals.
