Wilmore's books have helped countless educators succeed on TExES exams and are widely recognized as the gold standard in TExES preparation. In this comprehensive new guide, the author turns her expertise to another facet of the exacting standards tested by the Principal exam. Beginning with a thorough overview, Wilmore delves into case studies that all students will find useful and applicable to their preparation.

Texas needs great principals more than ever. With this book, your path to joining them is much clearer.
