07/21/2022 03:20:41 PMAldine ISD and the University of Houston College of Education have partnered to launch an immersive principal training program with funding from the Texas Education Agency. Participants gain real-world experience during a yearlong internship, where they’re employed full time as school leaders. They also receive a scholarship that covers tuition and fees while they pursue a master’s degree in administration and supervision in preparation to earn state certification as principals. The College has led the way in the Houston region on this innovative preparation model, also working with Houston ISD and Angleton ISD on similar principal residency programs.
