University of Washington Bothell will offer in partnership with several school districts, the Center for Strengthening the Teaching Profession, and the Center forEducational Leadership a new principal preparation program honoring the work of teacher leaders. With new thinking about how to coordinate teachers' on-the-job learning and university classes, the program supports teacher instructionalleaders and helps them document their learning so that it contributes to requirements for a masters degree and state residency principal certification.
It is a performance-based program consisting of two parts. A series of structured and practical performance tasks integrate learning from seminars, e-learning, and clinical practice. Through these tasks candidates document both practical experience and conceptual understandings related to all certification standards and UW Bothell masters degree requirements.
The program is expected to begin in spring 2010.Two informational sessions will occur on Monday, February 22, and Thursday March 4. Both sessions will be at 5:30 p.m. at the Bothell campus.
