The purpose of this paper is to consider the advantages of an ethnographic approach to the study of school management. Ethnographic studies are generally characterized by : R the necessity to live for an extended time in the community or with the group, (2) concern for mundane, day to day events as well as exotic events, (3) a focus especially on participants' interpretation of things, R an attempt to build a synthetic and contextualized explanation, (5) a tendency to view the interpretative or conceptual structures intentionally in the research, and (6) reporting through a conscious and creative blending of storytelling with more abstract conceptualizing. Ethnographic study makes it possible to see how people act and see both the conscious and unconscious elements in their actual settings, which is the key to understanding school organization. Its weak points are that its results very depending on the personal factors of the researcher, and the difficulty of comparison and generalization. Finkel's study was conducted in two effective urban elementary school. Though both school are effective, her "thick description" shows that styles of exerting leadership by the principals are very different. It suggests that the function of schooling should be understood in its own setting and environment, and therefore, that treating all schools together and seeking a single model of good management can be misleading. Based on the above discussion, the advantages of an ethnographic approach to the study of school management are : CD a dynamic understanding of the 'interpretation process' of school participants, (2) a source for hypotheses for empirical inquiries, and (3) a means to check the validity of empirical inquiry.
