The Summer Leadership Academy

The Eleventh Annual Summer Leadership Academy is your school's opportunity to make unique inroads in meeting your school improvement goals. No matter where you are in the process, the Academy provides your team with the time and resources to move forward. With carefully planned strategies, the skills to implement them and the techniques to document the results, school improvement can be a focused, rewarding and productive experience.

The Academy is designed for three to five member school improvement teams. Resources such as knowledgeable NCA facilitators and staff, Internet access with assistance and mini-workshop sessions are available, as well as a variety of NCA materials. The evenings are left free to further group work, discuss hot topics in education and engage in relaxing activities at the Grand Traverse Resort.

Back by popular demand! District Accreditation Strand

For schools/districts pursuing District Accreditation we will have special workshops and planning sessions during the Summer Leadership Academy. We will feature educators from districts who have received their District Accreditation to help guide new districts through the process! This will be a fabulous opportunity for districts to learn more about how they can more efficiently perform and achieve greater results as a system!
