The principal's leadership role in schools has been documented in the literature where a call for leadership grounded in solid ethical principles has emerged. Questions have been raised concerning the influence of the personal values of leaders on the effectiveness of their organizations. Questions arise because personal values determine leadership behavior. A major problem in the literature is the abundance of prescriptive writings and the paucity of empirical studies on the topic of ethical or value-laden leadership. While the literature also recognizes the need for principals to understand their own value system, insufficient research has been done to facilitate the meeting of this need. Christopher Hodgkinson's value theory guided this study and indicated that certain personal values would be preferred by more effective leaders. The purpose of this study was to determine the personal values of principals and to compare the personal values of principals of effective schools with those of principals of ineffective schools. The Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS) was used to determine effective schools, while Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS, 1990-91) percent of low-income data was used to control for variation in sets. The Rokeach Value Survey was used to measure the personal values of principals whose schools ranked in the top and bottom one-third of the state's TAAS scores. For each socio-economic category, the median ranking of each value on the RVS was computed for low and high TAAS schools, and these median ranks were compared between low and high TAAS schools using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Hypotheses were developed based on Hodgkinson's value theory as it applied to the values listed in the Rokeach Value Survey. The results indicated that personal values of principals of effective schools differ from personal values of principals of ineffective schools. For instance, principals of effective schools rank "loyal" higher than principals of ineffective schools, while principals of ineffective schools rank "intellectual" higher than their counterparts of effective schools. They further indicated that certain values emerge in the principals of effective schools.
