The Master of Arts with a concentration in Educational Leadership is designed to provide qualified and experienced educators with the knowledge and skills necessary to assume leadership positions in schools, particularly those of supervisor/director or principal/assistant principal.
The focus of the program is curriculum instruction and management finance. The program emphasizes the role of a school leader as collaborator and creator of a supportive and stimulating environment for children and teachers.
Individuals already in official leadership positions may also enroll in order to broaden their expertise. Approved by the Massachusetts Department of Education, the Master of Arts with a concentration in Educational Leadership leads to an Initial License as either a School Principal/Assistant School Principal (Levels: PreK-6, 5-8 or 9-12); or to a Supervisor/Director. Professional Licensure is obtained through non-academic routes.
Coordinator and Advisor: Dr. James O'Connell, Education
