This study designs a model that would present a maximum level of delegation of authority, and to make a comparison of Holy Cross High School's extent of delegated authority against this model. The descriptive method of research was used in analyzing the present set-up, and the comparison of Holy Cross High School against a model. The material used in this study was the survey questionnaire which was answered by the principal concerned, personal interviews, observations, and the long experience of the researcher having stayed in this school for a number of years. The questionnaire was divided into four major areas of the principal's function, namely: planning, decision making, reporting, and supervision. Findings of the study revealed that in the area of planning, the functions delegated were the preparation of supervisory program, where this was delegated to the faculty and final decision was in the group where the principal was a member and the orientation program for students and teachers. The model suggested six of the seven functions be delegated except for the setting of the priority objectives of the school year, which was not delegated. The decision making functions delegated were the admission and discipline of students. Requisition and purchases and books to be used were also delegated, however the final decision was still with the principal. The hiring and dismissal of faculty and staff members, expulsion of students and the elective courses to be used were not delegated. The model suggested six of the seven major functions to be delegated. Only the expulsion of students was not delegated. The reporting functions delegated were in the preparation of reports to the DEC, BIR, SSS, DOL, and other entities. The annual report to the Board of Trustees has never been done. The model suggested that out of the four functions, three were proposed to be delegated. Only the presentation of annual report to the Board of Trustees was not suggested to be delegated. In the area of supervision, the evaluation of faculty members was delegated but the final say was still in the hands of the principal. The tasks of implementing classroom visitations and checking of lesson plan books were not delegated. The model suggested that of the three functions, only the checking of lesson plan books was suggested to be delegated. Based on the findings the following conclusions were made: 1. The organizational structure of Holy Cross High School is too centralized. Too much work and decision making is done by the principal. 2. The principal is overworked. 3. There is a necessity for re-organizing the present structure, giving more leadership role to some experienced and qualified teachers. 1978-01-01T08:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/etd_masteral/4169 Master's Theses English Animo Repository Students Evaluations
