From our collaborators:
"As a superintendent it is difficult to find meaningful professional growth
experiences that stretch beyond the technical aspects of the job. The Executive Leadership Institute is unique because it provides an opportunity to engage with other practitioners and researchers in deep, meaningful conversation around substantive leadership issues like courage and social justice."
- Dr. Mary Herrmann
Superintendent
Winnetka (IL) Public School District 36
"Leadership is second only to teacher quality for improving student achievement. It is, therefore, imperative that we support ongoing leadership development in the state of Illinois."
- Dr. Diane Rutledge
Executive Director, Large Unit District Association
Former Superintendent, Springfield (IL) Public School District 186
