Our Mission

The Onward Leaders Program supports extraordinary educators in becoming highly effective and exemplary Catholic School leaders in their school communities.

 
 
 

Program Goals

 
  • Realize each Catholic school’s vision of academic success through a professional development program designed to enhance educational leaders’ knowledge and skills in Governance & Leadership, Mission & Catholic Identity, Academic Excellence, and Operational Vitality

  • Empower educational leaders to drive school change, establish priorities, and improve their practice

  • Design individual learning paths with each resident principal around the Archdiocesan pillars and facilitate authentic field experiences based on competencies in each pillar

  • Foster a collaborative community that equips resident principals with a sense of efficacy and growth to reach their greatest potential in and outside of academia

 

Our Vision

Each Onward Leader actualizes the Archdiocesan vision for growth at their school site by establishing a collaborative culture to ensure vibrant Catholic schools for present and future generations.
