Nominate a principal

The Wallace Foundation cites five important characteristics of effective school leaders: shaping a vision of academic success based on high standards; creating a hospitable climate; cultivating leadership in others; improving instruction; and managing people, data and processes to foster school improvement.

We seek the public’s help in nominating highly effective school principals to be honored at our summer leadership academy in Killington. Although we often get nominations from school personnel, we also greatly value nominations from students, parents and the public.

The nomination form is at our website vpaonline.org. The article “The Effective Principal” is listed there as well. Additionally, we would be happy to mail the nomination form to anyone interested. Our phone number is 229-0547. Thank you for your help in identifying Vermont’s top-notch school leaders.
