Provides on-the-job experience Observe strategies from a variety of schools and learn from veterans Opportunity to see theory in practice Relatively inexpensive for MCS
The Program:
Begins with a 6-week national institute in which participants take courses in instructional leadership and management of systems, people, and financial resources Full-time residency with a mentor principal in which NLNS participants develop and apply their newly-learned skills and work on a project
ASSESSMENT OF NLNS
Lack of exposure to various leadership styles Limited support system Potential problems with mentor principal Very expensive for MCS
All new leaders are evaluated with the same 12dimension rubric Full immersion in the program Involvement in the day-to-day responsibilities of a principal
Refine MLFP to allow assistant principals to take a year off so they can be fully immersed in the program
Additionally, it is possible that candidates are worried about leaving their positions to pursue a program with no guaranteed job at the end of the year
