RIDE collaborates with local and national organizations to establish resources for school leaders that begin with preparation for the field and extend to the ongoing support and retention of our career administrators.
We are excited to offer seats for a 2022-23 cohort of this research-based, nationally recognized program. Thanks to support from the Partnership for Rhode Island, RIDE is making this opportunity available to current and former principals working as education administrators in Rhode Island. A cohort of approximately 20 leaders will be identified to participate free-of-charge in this year-long program designed to enhance leadership skills, promote strategic thinking, and cultivate research-based school improvement strategies. Added Bonus: Completion of the NISL Program is considered an aspirational benchmark resulting in eligibility for a 7-year advanced certificate at renewal.
Application to join is due back to RIDE by July 29, 2022.

A portion of the Education Accountability Act (2019), referred to as “site-based management”, directly impacts the roles and responsibilities of school leaders. Specifically, the act:
There will be a transition period as LEAs and schools move to fulfill the requirements of site-based management by the start of the 2021 school year. LEAs that are able to do so sooner are encouraged to move forward prior to this start date.

According to a 2004 study completed by the Wallace Foundation, the impact strong school leadership can have in schools, particularly high-poverty schools, is paramount after teacher effectiveness. The Rhode Island Department of Education is focusing on strengthening leadership in Rhode Island schools in a variety of ways, including the creation, adoption, and implementation of the newly refreshed Rhode Island Standards for Educational Leaders (RISEL).
Created by a workgroup consisting of teachers, principals, superintendents, and RIDE, the RISEL communicate the values, knowledge, and skills required to be an effective district level or school level leader in today’s world. The RISEL will influence leadership preparation, hiring, development and retention practices and inform the work of educational leaders across our state.
