ESSA Toolkit for Principals

The National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) recently launched its new ESSA toolkit. The toolkit includes downloadable fact sheets on the major provisions of ESSA, tips for principals on how to communicate with their state leaders and model legislation for states to use their Title II funding to support principals. There are three bill templates on 1) adoption of the Professional Standards for Educational Leaders 2015 and alignment to the principal evaluation and support system, 2) induction and mentoring for new principals or APs, and 3) creation of loan forgiveness programs for principals.
