Notes	This mixed-methods study explored the impact of a National Distinguished Principal's leadership style on staff and students of a Vanguard School in Connecticut. Bolman and Deal's (1991, 2003) reframing construct formed the basis of this study. The data confirmed the principal's use of all four leadership orientations: structural, human resource, political, and symbolic. The data particularly indicated regular use of the human resource and symbolic leadership orientations. The data also depicted a principal who used all five characteristics of an effective leader: passion, wisdom, focus, integrity, and courage, with the greatest evidence for passion, focus and wisdom (Bolman & Deal, 2002). Students proved to be capable respondents when identifying leadership style and behavior in their principal.
