Today, we also had the opportunity to zoom with our New Principals. New Principal support is part of a collaborative effort between @USAKansas and KPA to make sure new leaders have opportunities to network, learn, and collaborate as they take on the principalship.
📢 REMINDER: KPA is launching our first annual Principal for a Day initiative! 🎉 This program gives legislators the chance to shadow a Kansas school principal, experiencing firsthand the challenges & triumphs of school leadership. https://tinyurl.com/ksprincipals
Today, we partner with @USAKansas to bring training and support to New Principals. Principals have time to reflect on leadership, work in "helping trios", learn, and hear from veteran principals via our Principal Panel! It's a great day for learning! #edleadershipmatters
