A review of the literature indicates that there has been no previous studies on Virginia Athletic Directors (ADs) and their knowledge of school law.

In general, previous studies on educators' knowledge of school law demonstrates that educators do not have a comprehensive working knowledge of school law.

Abstract:
African American female principals typically lead low socioeconomic elementary schools. Administrators in predominately urban schools are familiar with the needs of minority students.

Therefore, African American female administrators rely on culture to develop meaningful relationships with students, teachers, and parents and makeup for any financial hardships, which may exist duri
