Comunidad de Práctica de Liderazgo Educativo
Great schools start with great leaders. Since 2018, we’ve partnered with school leaders and their instructional teams to ignite student success through excellence in teaching and learning. By equipping educators with research-backed strategies, high-quality instructional materials, and a culture of continuous improvement, we help schools create classrooms where every student thrives.
Interested in learning more about the Instructional Leadership Community of Practice?
We’re eager to partner with TK–5 WCCUSD principals who are ready to grow their own leadership, strengthen their teams, and drive lasting impact. Our application for the 2026-27 school year will open in the spring of 2026.

As a member, you’ll strengthen your skills in delivering high-quality instruction, deepen your ability to analyze student data, and gain new tools to support your team’s growth.
Through collaboration with fellow principals, instructional leaders, and expert coaches, you’ll not only expand your knowledge but also build the capacity to drive lasting academic improvement at your school.
