NOVICE SUPERINTENDENTS’ ACADEMY

            The NJASA Novice Academy has been created by request of our 2011-12 New Superintendent Academy attendees. It is designed to provide second and third year Superintendents an opportunity to strengthen and expand upon the skills and experiences gained in their first year, as well as Superintendents “new” to New Jersey. The network that was created will be expanded to provide the needed support and guidance for our novice colleagues.

          Sign up for any or all of the following sessions; however, to get the most out of this NJASA-sponsored professional development opportunity, you are encouraged to attend all three sessions.  To assist you in doing so, the cost of registration for all sessions as a package has been discounted over individual registration fees.  

The Academy will be comprised of three sessions during the 2012 - 2013 school year.  All sessions will be held at NJASA Headquarters, located at 920 West State Street in Trenton, New Jersey. All sessions will run from approximately 9:00 am - 2:00 pm and include continental breakfast, lunch and all meeting materials.
