Abstract: The intention of this study was to provide a comprehensive, descriptive examination of the experience, preparation, training, and demographic makeup of charter school principals. The researcher found that charter school leaders are more likely to earn lower salaries and to be female and more racially and ethnically diverse than their public school counterparts. They also have, on average, fewer years of experience as teachers and principals and are less likely to have previously earned a graduate degree, participated in a training program for aspiring principals, or held the position of assistant principal.
