Practicum in School Leadership I

Catalog description

Within Practicum in School Leadership 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 Principal role. 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 Principal. 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 Principal, 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 Principal.
