Dear Mr. Castle:
Â
As you are probably aware, we have a wonderful program for students highlighting career opportunities for women in the 21st Century. Last week I had the opportunity to make a presentation about our program to all of the principals in your school district.
Â
The presentation went well and I thought the principals were genuinely interested in its possibilities. However, I could not help but notice that approximately three-quarters of your administrators are men. I was very surprised at this. The majority of your teachers are female but this is not the case with the administrators. This gives the impression of a glass ceiling effect.
Â
Would you share with me the demographics of your district’s professional staff? In addition, I would be interested in knowing what the district is doing to address the apparent underrepresentation of women in the administrative ranks.
Â
Sincerely,
Â
Jackie Johnson

Response
Answer the following questions,
1. Describe the glass ceiling effect and how it reflects this scenario.
2. Draft a written response to Ms. Johnson, addressing her concerns.
3. Compare the demographics in this situation with the demographics in your school / district. Does your district’s administrative profile indicate a glass ceiling effect?
