Here’s what participants are saying:

“Participating in the ACSA Mentor Program has provided me an invaluable support during my first years as a new principal. The opportunity to connect with an experienced peer on a regular basis has allowed me to protect time for reflection, advice and encouragement. I recommend to any new leader, or leader in a new role, to seek this support.”

“Having a mentor has been invaluable. I sincerely appreciate the informal structure set up that allows for an authentic and safe place to air thoughts. My thinking partner has supported me in many facets. Her experience as a practitioner has been encouraging as I navigate my new role.”

“The mentor program has provided me with support from a seasoned, accomplished and extraordinary leader. He guides me to devise real-world solutions to the kind of challenges I believe all administrators face, for which my credential program couldn’t possibly prepare me. I credit a great deal of my administrative success to his service on my behalf.”
