New Principals Workshops

The principalship is one of the most challenging and rewarding positions within education. Join the USA-Kansas staff and other leaders new to the role in this partnership between USA-Kansas, KELI, and the Kansas Principal’s Association as we unite our work to support new leaders. This series is designed to foster a strong professional network of principals, to put research into practice within the first year of the principalship, and to provide time for intentional reflection and planning.
