Leadership Programs
School leadership programs improve teaching and learning indirectly and most powerfully through their influence on staff motivation, commitment, and working conditions. The school leadership program has a greater influence on schools and students when it is widely distributed. Some patterns of distribution are more effective than others.
Student Leadership Program (SLP) is a community program designed to equip students with tangible skills to explore options beyond the classroom. ... The program focuses on giving students skills and life experiences that will benefit them after they graduate from high school.
