Overview
Dr. Angela Clark-Taylor, Chair
M.S.Ed.: School Building Leader (SBL) and School District Leader (SDL)
The educational leadership program is designed for candidates who hold a New York State (NYS) teaching certificate (professional or permanent) and are seeking NYS certification at the school building and school district level. The program is designed to provide high-quality and innovative standards-based educational experiences for ethical future educational leaders.
The program is online. All courses are online using an integrated approach by combining theory, authentic case studies, class discussions, candidates’ experience, and field-based internships to address current and emerging issues impacting the quality of education. Theory is infused with practice to support the acquisition of the skills, knowledge, and values necessary to create optimum school conditions that promote a high-quality learning environment for all students. The case studies and field experiences both teach and measure candidate competence against national and state standards.
