study was to determine the extent to which principals perceived mission statements to be valuable in performing their duties as school leaders. The study also investigated what tasks principals performed in developing and then implementing the intent of their mission statements in their schools. The main research questions for this study were as follows: Research Question 1: Did principals believe that mission statements differed by school? Research Question 2: Were principals involved in drafting or revising mission statements? How often did this process take place? Research Question 3: In what specific ways did principals use mission statements in their daily leadership, supervisory, and managerial practices? Research Question 4: What did principals think was the extent to which teachers in their schools knew and were committed to the institutional mission statements? What influence did they believe the level of teachers' knowledge and commitment to the institutional mission have on the way that they functioned as principals?
