The Institute for Charter School Leadership is an intensive one-week experience designed for individuals and teams who lead and manage charter schools. The institute will benefit members of an administrative team who are responsible for providing leadership within various domains of charter school administration. Additionally, participants will enhance their ability to make choices for their schools grounded in theory and supported by data.
The summer institute is a cooperative effort of Peabody Professional Institutes and The National Center on School Choice.
The National Center on School Choice aims at conducting scientific, comprehensive, and timely investigation on the individual and systemic effects of school choice and competition. The Center occupies a position of national intellectual leadership in coordinating efforts of multiple disciplines, methodologies, and substantive issues that are associated with the design, implementation, and effects of school choice. Its programs of research engage nationally known scholars across major social science disciplines from nationally ranked top research universities. Led by Vanderbilt, the Center’s core partners include Harvard University, Stanford University, National Bureau of Economic Research, The Brookings Institution, and Northwest Evaluation Association.
“Peabody provided a participatory, highly collaborative engagement with superlative scholars which was personally transformational.” – Matthew Floding, Dean of Students, Western Theological Seminary
