Preparing Tomorrow's Leaders:
Why Leadership Matters
The field of education is going through tremendous change. To ensure the schools and districts that serve our communities are fully meeting the needs of their students and families, educational leaders need to be strategically focused on proven leadership and administrative strategies, use research-based best practices, and are effective change leaders.
Our mission promote excellence in Illinois schools is rooted in advancing the educational leadership profession and support the professional growth of professors of educational administration. This work is about preparing current and future school and district leaders to be focused on equity, academic quality, student well-being, and effective organizations. Today's educational leader is tasked with facilitating change, developing staff capacity, and building communities. This requires a strong system of preparation that coordinates with the state departments, professional associations, legislators and policy makers, parents and communities.
