State and Regional Policies reveal that these areas are chief among the concerns of rural school leaders (Johnson, 2005). The rural school administrator's role often requires him/her to become involved in every aspect of a school's functions. It is crucial for the rural administrator to understand the culture and expectations of the surrounding community in order to become successful in these endeavors (Helge, 1985). Teachers new to the district need to be given assistance in adapting to the day-to-day functions of their schools. They need specific information about the culture surrounding the school and the community. Seeking individuals most likely to be sold on the benefits of teaching in a rural school is recommended. Such individuals usually have rural backgrounds, personal characteristics or educational experiences that predispose them for life in a rural area (Collins, 1999)
