New Leaders for New Schools (NLNS)
New Leaders for New Schools is a School Building Leadership certification program that trains individuals to become leaders within their schools within the role of Assistant Principal and Principal. This program consists of an intensive summer institute, followed by a yearlong, full-time internship where the student will have substantial projects and leadership opportunities in a school, as well as academic sessions to incorporate the theory with the practice. The internships will be led by exceptional mentor principals selected for their outstanding track record in urban public schools. The participants receive academic credit for PAF 9301, PAF 9309, PAF 9310, PAF 9314, PAF 9312, PAF 9319, and PAF 9320 and are recommended for State certification once all requirements are met.
