School Leadership Center announces fellowships

   The School Leadership Center of Greater New Orleans (SLC) invites principals and assistant principals from public, private, charter and parochial schools to submit applications for the 2014-15 Fellows Program, a job-embedded professional development program limited to only 30 applicants. The Fellows Program is designed to advance excellence in school administration.
   Historically, Fellows’ schools outperform non-SLC schools on state measures of student achievement, according to SLC chief executive officer Dr. Brian Riedlinger. Applications are available  online at www.slc-gno.org. The SLC Fellows Program starts with a week-long Summer Institute, wherein participants are immersed in setting their school’s academic direction and sustaining school change. This planning is then carried out within the school over a two-year period, using and analyzing data to lead school improvement.
   This is fee-based professional development. For details, contact John Brown or Dr. Cissy LaForge at SLC-GNO.org or call 267-7243.
