Presenter:
Ivy Pfeffer, Rocci Malone
Description:
To build the knowledge and skills of building-level instructional leaders across Arkansas, the Arkansas Department of Education (ADE) was awarded a grant through the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB). Grant funds are being used to develop a multi-tiered system of support focused on specific principal needs, customized to five regions of the state, and aligned to Arkansas’s Teacher Excellence and Support System (TESS) and Leader Excellence and Development System (LEADS) and other School Improvement work. This opportunity has culminated in Arkansas’s Leadership Quest, a unique opportunity for principal leadership, growth and development. Understanding the principal as key to the growth of teachers and ultimately students, the grant activities focus on cultivating instructional leadership in building leaders. The attached presentation summarizes the grant activities and components of the ongoing work.
