Executive Leadership Study Group

With great excitement, we announce the 39th annual “Executive Leadership Study Group” series (formerly known as the Administrative Study Group). For those of you who are new or unfamiliar with the group, its purpose is to provide area superintendents with an opportunity to examine current issues in an educational and practical context. It brings together educational leadership and speakers to interact in an informal setting.

The group will once again be coordinated by Dr. Vince Coppola, Superintendent Search Consultant for the Council. The first session will be held at the Marriott on Millersport (map) with all remaining sessions at the Millenium Hotel (map) on Walden Ave in Cheektowaga.
