District Leadership in the Field I

Catalog description

Within District Leadership in the Field I, students work in collaboration with their qualified Cooperating Practitioner and SNHU Field Experience Supervisor as they engage in a sustained and cohesive educational leadership field experience aligned to the Superintendent licensure area. Throughout this first practicum, students will have the opportunity to assume the range of roles and responsibilities that demonstrate they have the knowledge, skills and dispositions of a Superintendent. Through class sessions, students will also engage in a PLC-model to design, analyze, and reflect upon their various leadership experiences that support them in demonstrating the competencies of a Superintendent, as set forth in the NH Administrative Rules for Education. Reflection and self-assessment are leveraged throughout the practicum experience to ensure there is continuous monitoring of one’s progress toward reaching their desired state as an educational leader and Superintendent. This course is part of the capstone for District Leadership and is taken before CAGS 732 - District Leadership in the Field II.
