Introduction start time is 1:00pm
Educational
institutions are under more pressure than ever to provide
a high quality learning environment for the students in their
care. With increasing scrutiny and often decreasing dollars,
school leaders are challenged to do more with the resources
they have and to provide a strong instructional curriculum.
Yet, their success is often hampered by the management challenges
they face. This executive education program, specifically
designed for school leaders, will provide an outstanding,
interactive academic experience.
Focused
on key leadership topics, this program will combine theory
and practice enabling school leaders to more effectively manage
their teachers, staff, external constituents and students
to better meet the educational needs of the children in their
schools. Good instructional leadership is critical to the
success of a school, but a strong management orientation will
help leaders continue to build stronger schools, motivate
their staff to lead to higher performing students.
Participants
are encouraged to come as a team to this program. This team
could include principals, assistant principals, board members
and key instructional leaders. To facilitate the participation
of multiple leaders, the Kellogg School Center for Nonprofit
Management has identified seed funding that will enable each
participant to attend for a special tuition which includes
two and half days of instruction, materials, meals and coffee
breaks.
This unique
educational experience provides an opportunity for school
leaders to network with each other as well as to learn from
leading experts in management.
