Abstract

This phenomenological study explored the experiences of high school principals with students with derogatory records and provided valuable insights to high school principals in terms of managing academic deviancy of students with derogatory papers. Using purposive sampling, the researcher identified public and private high school principals as participants of the study. The semi-structured interview guide was validated and used in this study to generate data from the participants. Results revealed that the experiences of high school principals in dealing with students with derogatory records are feeling sorry for what happened to them, disrespecting by the students and parents, encountering bully students, comforting students with a family problem, giving pieces of advice and opportunities, and conferencing with parents. Further, school principals met students who misbehave, members of the gang, fighters, liars, and students who tend to cut classes. These students who have derogatory records are also the victim of their environment. They were just the receiver of the action shown to them. The management style of the principal is democratic. They perform such a manner through delegating, empowering, consulting, and empathizing. However, the impact of this management style of the principal to the students with derogatory records is a fear, strict, threat, not visible, and oblige. Thus, principals should implement rules which are agreeable by the subordinate.
