Results You Can Count On
Our approach is built upon the largest evidence base of effective principal preparation in the country. We prepare leaders who get results where it matters most: in schools, for students.
FOCUSED ON SUCCESS FOR EVERY STUDENT
The Fellowship is designed to empower educators with the tools and mindset to lead effectively in their school communities. You develop the skills to explore, understand and lead with a culturally-responsive mindset to inspire positive change and foster an inclusive environment for every student.
FOR FULL-TIME TEACHERS
The Fellowship is completed in your school, with coursework online. Our job-embedded approach prepares you for the principal role at the same time you fulfill the certification and residency requirements.
