Abstract
This phenomenological study explores teachers’ experiences with mistreatment by their administrators. I draw on interview data collected from teachers in two southern states, using Blasè & Blasè’s (2006) levels of principal aggression to categorize teachers’ experiences with mistreatment. The teachers report a range of mistreatment by their principals, including public embarrassment, non-renewal of contracts without cause, and arrest on baseless claims of assault on a student.
