Principal Leadership Program for Rural Multicultural Schools Across Northern New Mexico (LeadNM) | University of New Mexico
Activities
In the monthly professional learning communities, principals look at student work, use protocols to face dilemmas, and use a variety of texts to grow new knowledge together around issues of leadership, equity and poverty, NCLB and teacher quality. Throughout the year cohort participants have worked on the theory of shared, lateral accountability and how these professional learning communities are creating structures to help each district respond to students’ needs. Participants continue to work on targeted coursework outside of cohort meetings that addresses standards within the context of the cohort members' needs. Principals’ work is sustained at the building level with principal coaches called "Circuit Riders" – experienced ex-administrators.
