Selective Hiring • Leader standards, to which CMS aligns job descriptions, training, hiring requirements, evaluations, and professional development • High-quality training, including recruitment, selective admissions and pre-service experiences aligned with expectations for school leaders • Selective hiring of the most qualified applicants, and placement based on a match between the candidate and the school • On-the-job evaluation and support:evaluation that addresses the capacity to improve teaching and learning, and support that includes mentoring and professional development addressing the needs that evaluation has identified • The fifth component, Alignment, capacity and quality assurance, addresses integration of the four components above so as to create a coherent and highly effective system of principal development and support

  8. Selective Hiring • All candidates for principal/AP positions must go through a centralized rigorous screening and section process to be placed be in the talent pool • Process designed by community superintendents based on identified competencies, skills and beliefs • Centralized process: Application and virtual interview followed by activities including role play, in basket exercise, school data review and teacher observation • School based process: Recommendation from community superintendent based on input from school selection committee; final decision from superintendent

  10. CMS AP Induction • FIRST YEAR APs: • Monthly meetings led by ED and/or Development Teams • SECOND YEAR APs: • AP Academy at Queens University • 6-day program at Queens University to support APs as they develop an understanding of leadership and develop their own leadership philosophy • SAM Data Collection • Opportunity to shadow a principal for 2 days to gain perspective on the day-to-day role of principal and experience how other schools and/or grade levels operate

  11. Leader Tracking System • LTS Vision • The LTS will enable and support data-driven decision making throughout multiple components of our principal pipeline: pre-service training, selective hiring, on-the-job support, and evaluation. • Strategic Plan Alignment • The LTS aligns with Strategic Plan 2018 in the following areas: • Goal 2: Recruit, develop, retain and reward a premier workforce • Goal 5: Optimize district performance and accountability by strengthening data use, processes and systems • LTS Will Not • Replace MyAPP or be used as a system directly linked to the hiring process.

  12. Principal Supervisor Focus • Redefined the job description for principal supervisor • Reduced ratio of principal supervisor: principal ratio • Added 3 new principal supervisors for 2014-2015 • Provided tailored executive coaching for principal supervisors through Queens University • Provided instructional monitoring training through The New Teacher Project • Schedule weekly meetings with principal supervisors

  13. Next Steps • As we move forward, we will continue to focus on strengthening our internal capacity to build strong principals and a sustainable initiative. • Evaluate impact of principal preparation and induction programs • Improve recruiting, selection and hiring processes • Collaborate with other district initiatives (i.e. Project Lift, Success by Design, Beacon, etc.) • Leverage LTS to strengthen the districts ability to use data to inform decisions • Continue to reduce the principal supervisor: principal ratio
