Preparing New Principals (PNP)

  • After completing the Future Leaders Academy and the Assistant Principal Induction Program, aspiring leaders are eligible to apply for the Preparing New Principals (PNP) program. Over the course of one year, Assistant Principals are prepared and trained on how to create positive school culture and working conditions for teachers, as well as how to positively impact teacher and student performance.

  • “The Preparing New Principals program helped prepare me for my role as a school principal by providing me with scenarios that I would not be faced with in my position of assistant principal. There were multiple sessions with current principals who provided personal testimonials, networking and assistance. It also allowed me to self-reflect and become aware of best practices that would empower me to be as effective as possible when granted the opportunity to lead at the next level.”
