Learned, skilled, and effective principals are in short supply. Those who understand and have the insight, versatility, and commitment to successfully lead urban schools are in even shorter supply. Consequently, many urban school districts face the challenge of employing under-prepared principals or growing their own.

The AISD Leadership Development Center is committed to recruiting, rigorously preparing, and retaining highly effective leaders at all levels- principal, assistant principal and teacher leaders-who can transform all of our schools and insure the success of all of our children.
