This case study was conducted to understand the leadership of a principal in an Islamic school. Perceptions of one principal's leadership in creating, maintaining, and changing cultural capital in the Islamic Community Center of Illinois (ICCI) Academy were obtained through interviews, document analysis, and observations. The study found the following three major themes in analyses of the principal's roles: executive-administrative, supervisory-technical, and social. The findings of this study provide recommendations for stakeholders and policymakers to create, maintain, and change cultural capital in Islamic schools.
