Educational Administration Programs
The program serves educators with master's degrees who seek school principalships and other administrative positions. Our program welcomes aspiring P12 educational leaders driven by their commitment to equity and improvement as much as their desire to make an impact beyond the classroom.
This program is designed for working P12 educators. The master's degree curriculum may include an optional principal licensure track for candidates wanting to also add the Ohio administrator’s principal license credential to their current educator’s license.
The program recognizes that school administration must change to reflect the more collaborative organizational structure of schools. In a participatory structure, problems are solved in teams where members collaborate and share their experiences and specialized knowledge.
