The Catholic School Leadership Institute is a summer workshop that will provide ongoing formation and support for new principals and at the same time reinvigorate those experienced principals who have faced the daily challenges of administration. Those teachers who are considering the ministry of administration will also find the program a valuable opportunity to share their ideas and learn from those who are already in administration.
On Thursday evening, June 26th, participants will focus on personality styles and leadership; on Friday, June 27, the focus will be on principal as spiritual leader; on Saturday, June 28, the focus will be on principal as administrator with special emphasis on finance and development issues. Each afternoon session will have outcomes based activities/and or best practices discussions. Sunday, June 29th, the morning session will provide time for some general discussions about instructional leadership. The Institute ends after lunch on Sunday.
There is a parish church immediately next door to the Center in order for participants to attend Mass either on Saturday evening or Sunday morning.
Friday and Saturday evenings will be free in to see the local sites.
The Institute will be held at Vallombrosa Retreat and Conference Center in Menlo Park, CA (between San Francisco and San Jose) from June 26-29, 2008.
