Dear Colleagues:

The Leadership for Educational Achievement Foundation, Inc. (LEAF) is the professional development arm of the New York State Council of School Superintendents (The Council). LEAF provides high quality professional learning to support superintendent development and the development of school district leadership team members. In partnership with The Council, LEAF’s programs are research-based, aligned to the needs of the field, responsive to changing expectations for school leaders, and cost effective.

LEAF’s programs are available to all school leaders including superintendents, deputy/assistant superintendents, principals and directors. Participation in LEAF programs enables school lead-ers to learn from experts and from one another. These learning experiences offer opportunities for reflection and for intellectual conversation with colleagues.

In 2012-2013 the LEAF Foundation responded to members’ needs and requests to offer high quality training to teams of educators on APPR, Common Core and leader-ship. With funding provided by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, LEAF was able to establish regional training programs in collaboration with five BOCES from across New York State. The regional training programs will continue in 2013-2014 and have been expanded to six locations, with our goal to continue offering training opportunities that are timely and responsive.

We are proud to present this professional development catalog where you will find a description of programs and services. Some of our program offerings have yet to be developed and will be based upon your immediate needs. This catalog is only available electronically. We feel that it is important to be more economically conscious in these difficult fiscal times and it also allows us to update our offerings throughout the year. We welcome any questions or suggestions you may have regarding our professional development offerings.

Sincerely,

Mary Alice Price Kelly O. Masline President of LEAF, Inc. Director, LEAF, Inc.

LEAF’s Educorps

LEAF’s Educorps service provides a unique support system for superintendents statewide. Superintendents can feel comfortable knowing they have an experienced, highly respected support network available to help them succeed. Superintendents can call LEAF when they have something pressing on their minds, whether it is a major source of concern in their district, an operational need or an organizational challenge. As current and former superintendents recruited from among the finest practitioners, Educorps consultants can provide thoughtful and objective advice, research best practices or help “troubleshoot” the best course of action. For the first time, all new superintendents whose BOCES have joined Educorps will be assigned a free mentor to assist them during their first year of the superintendency.

LEAF’s Educorps Service Network consists of school districts whose BOCES have paid the annual Educorps membership fee. As members of the network, districts of participating BOCES may receive Educorps Informal/Confidential consulting services at no charge. All conversations are confidential.

For more information on the above services please contact Nancy Wengert, Program Associate ([email protected]) at 518-694-4872 or Kelly Masline, Director ([email protected]) at 518-694-4880.



educational leadership Policy standards: isllC 2008

LEAF’s professional development offerings are designed around the Educational Leadership Policy Standards: ISLLC 2008. The standards were written by the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) in partnership with the National Policy Board for Educational Administration. According to the Council of Chief State School Officers, these standards reflect the new information and lessons learned about educational leadership and provide high-level guidance and insight about the traits, functions of work, and responsibilities expected of school district leaders. Following are the six standards. To review the full document, please visit http://www.ccsso.org/content/pdfs/elps_isllc�008.pdf.

standard 2

leadership theory and Practice

Professional Development leadership Credential

The Leadership for Educational Achievement Foundation, Inc. offers the Leadership Credential with the purpose of providing an opportunity for superintendents to strengthen their educational leadership skills through intensive, focused and customized professional development.

The process leading to attainment of the leadership credential is designed to provide superintendents with a means of assessing the scope and effec-tiveness of their leadership efforts based upon the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) 2008 Leadership Standards. The process relies on self-reflection, data and research analysis, and an aggressive professional development agenda focused on strengthening leadership to support student achievement.

Superintendents interested in assuring that leadership development is systemic, research-based, and ongoing should consider participating. The program is open to any superintendent regardless of district size or level of experience but is highly selective with a maximum of five superintendents being selected to participate annually. To assist in the process, each participating superintendent is assigned with a Leadership Partner to provide support, guidance and feedback throughout the credential process.

For more information please contact Kelly Masline, Director ([email protected] or 518/449-1063).

The Leadership for Educational Achievement Foundation, Inc. (LEAF), in collaboration with regional BOCES, is pleased to present a series of professional development workshops designed to help superintendents and other school leaders in their efforts to support the ongoing development of school principals in their role as instructional leaders. The State’s new APPR for principals centers on the continual development of principals as instructional leaders with the knowledge and skill to get the “right things” done the “right way.” Part of the equation for success in the development of principals as instructional leaders is support, encouragement and guidance from superintendents.

This workshop series will focus on what the research tells us about the knowledge bases and skill sets that define “instructional leadership” and how these findings can best be applied in the real world of school improvement. The relationship between the principal and superintendent will also be explored with attention given to roles, responsibilities and practices that support the ongoing development of instructional leadership. Participants will be provided with tools, skill building exercises, case studies, simulations and information to build on their current strengths as leaders. Six regional sites have been established in order to satisfy the requirement for providing a statewide opportunity for participation. With grant funding, we are able to keep the cost reasonable for participants in recognition of local budget constraints. BOCES aid is also available.
