The Educational Administration Program at SIUE helped to build my foundation of leadership skills and prepared me for my new role as an instructional leader. Led by a supportive and experienced faculty, our coursework emphasized the latest research and best practices. During our internship experiences, we received effective feedback from our mentors as we applied best practices to real world situations. Recently, I accepted a junior high principal position and I am excited to begin my new career! I have no doubt that the key elements of this rigorous program will help me to become a successful administrator.

The Principal Prep program through Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville was one that prepared me to take on the role as an instructional leader. The classes worked through today's latest evaluation tools, expectations, and issues that may arise while leading a building. I was able to work closely with peers and professors who guided me with questions and encouraged discussions to help best prepare me to become a top leader in today’s schools. The internships within the program gave me the opportunity to work on actual information, such as a School Improvement Plan. This section of the program was an essential piece in preparing me to fulfill the role of a Principal. This program is set up to help you be successful. Through this program, I was able to ask questions and gain many useful experiences. The Principal Prep program at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville helped me to feel confident to accept a role as a Principal.
