Abstract
This study examined challenges that high school department chairpersons faced while changing to a 4 x 4 block schedule. Findings indicated that the participants experienced multiple learning curves and increased tensions between departmental and teaching responsibilities. These problems were exacerbated by reduced released time. Recommendations include aligning job descriptions with procedures, implementing "department chair" professional development, and increasing chairs' released time.
