The Vermont School Leadership Project, co-directed by Val Gardner and Peter Burrows, is a unique program that offers intensive professional development for superintendents, principals, curriculum and special education directors, as well as other education professionals who have proven leadership abilities. The Class of 2018 embarked on their leadership journey in July 2017 with their third session later this month. They will continue to meet at Lake Morey Resort over the next eleven months for a total of seven overnight sessions with seventeen seminar days.
Through theoretical discussions, experiential activities and personal reflection, associates will consider concepts related to education systems, organizational change and leadership. During the second half of the program, associates will apply and integrate new information through a transformation initiative conducted within their schools. The Class of 2018 is the 13th class since the Vermont School Leadership Project was founded in 1995. Upon completion of the program in November, the Class of 2018 will join close to 250 graduates who are making a difference in Vermont’s schools.
