Abstract
<p>Effective principals can impact student learning and other vital outcomes; thus, it is important to retain effective school leaders. This article examines the perceived sources of Kentucky principals’ satisfaction and dissatisfaction with their work and implications for policies and practices to increase principal retention.

Data indicated that head principals sampled in Kentucky were generally dissatisfied with the amount of time spent on tasks that have nothing to do with their primary responsibility of improving student outcomes. </p>
