What is the Superintendent Development Program?
The Superintendent Development Program teaches and
mentors individuals through the transition from their current, middle-level
school administrator position to Superintendent of Schools at the end
of the program year.
The foundation of this program is teams of two faculty
mentors and five to seven participants working through a series of
authentic learning activities - real issues facing superintendents in
local school districts. The teams' products are solutions with real
consequences. The issues are identified and sequenced by the faculty to
build insight, knowledge and attitudes during the program year. Writing
assignments, interviews, small and large group activities, and seminars
supplement the work on authentic issues.
Communication via computer technology is used
extensively in the program. Participants must use e-mail and be proficient in
computer technology communication.
Participants are trained to use systems thinking in
areas identified as critical to success in the superintendency. Participants
develop the skills and behavior necessary to enter the position of
Superintendent of Schools.
