The Innovative Principal is part of the The Partnership for School Innovation

The Innovative Principal

The Innovative Principal is a unique series of leadership institutes and forums designed for and led by principals and leading practitioners. At these sessions, you will have the opportunity to interact with other educators who share both the common and emerging challenges related to creating a 21st century school.

Whether the topic is low-cost computing, technology-based assessment, digital content, the homeschool connection or another relevant issue identified by our partner schools, you can exchange ideas, examine best practices and opportunities, and make decisions informed by the insights of experienced colleagues.

Innovation Field Trips

Innovation Field Trips bring you and your instructional teams to the front line of innovation, into model schools where the learning environment is already being enhanced by the successful integration of 21st century educational philosophy and technology.

Innovation Roadmap

Innovation Roadmap is a process for assessing and benchmarking your current learning environment. The process yields a one-year plan and a set of three-year goals, including recommendations for advancing your vision of the 21st Century School.

Leading the Way to
the 21st Century School

The Innovative Principal brings together principals and practitioners representing every stage of development, offering three distinct programs to help you understand and manage the opportunities that exist, the challenges you face, the technology you need to acquire, and the steps you need to take to turn your vision into reality.

  • Share ideas with realworld
    practitioners at leadership institutes.
  • Visit model 21st Century Schools and learn from their experience
  • Start planning your 21st Century School
