Project Summary

The Education Alliance, in collaboration with New York City's Council of School Administrators (CSA) developed a model for mentoring new urban school principals utilizing specially-trained retired urban mentor principals. The program presented new perspectives on the role of the principal as leader through current research and literature, as well as through practical strategies and applications that foster and promote improved student learning.

The program consisted of three major components which were accessible by principals including: the Advanced Leadership Seminar Series; a Resource Consultancy Team Review; and access to a Learning Partners mentoring relationship.
