New Leaders (www.newleaders.org) is a national non-profit that promotes high academic achievement for every child by recruiting, training, and supporting the next generation of outstanding principals for our nation's urban public schools. New Leaders rigorously selects high-quality emerging leaders with strong instructional skills to join its urban principal training program. The training includes demanding coursework and a yearlong, hands-on Residency where the New Leaders hone their skills and put theory into practice daily. After the training year, the New Leaders team works with these new principals to support them in driving their schools to 90% or higher school-wide student proficiency. Unlike some principal development programs, New Leaders prepares its emerging leaders in instructional, operational/managerial, and cultural change/transformational leadership, all with the goal of ensuring that at least 90% of the students in New Leaders-led schools achieve academic proficiency and graduate college-ready.
