Hope Public Schools is excited to announce its Aspiring Leaders Fellowship Cohort 2 participants! The fellowship is a two-year program that focuses on growing Hope Public School leaders to ensure that our school district has effective leaders who embrace change in a way that affects the hearts and minds of our stakeholders through empowerment, motivation, and ownership. Additionally, the program offers work-based opportunities for participants to develop new leadership skills based on capacity building that is low on “the blame game” and "high on support" through effective articulation of the rationale for change and work collaboratively in implementing prioritized needs in a way that is appropriate and beneficial to all stakeholders. The participants will be exposed to and apply new leadership skills provided through targeted leadership work-based learning opportunities and experiences.
