Educational Leadership Program

Lewis & Clark offers programs for impassioned and inspired leaders who want to change schools from the inside out.

Our faculty members are experts with deep ties to the field, and advocates who are sensitive to your need for professional flexibility. Our programs are responsive to the changing nature of our schools and are focused on the work you'll be doing every day as a leader.

Whether you are becoming a school leader for the first time or continuing a decades-long career, you will make lifelong connections with peers founded on a shared sense of calling to the field and a commitment to serving whole communities. Relationships and expertise are developed through intensive, small-group discussions in class and through practice.

Our graduates go on to improve schools from every leadership position, ranging from assistant principal to district superintendent. Our students, district human resources representatives, and district supervisors seem to agree: "Every single person I talked to said that Lewis & Clark was the best program. Several had been through the program themselves," says Sam Breyer, a middle school principal and participant in the initial licensure program.
