This video shares excerpts from Dr. Ellen Goldring's presentation during a regional convening of state education agency (SEA) leaders hosted by the REL West Educator Effectiveness Alliance in November 2018. Dr. Goldring's presentation "A New Role for Principal Supervisors" introduced participants to lessons learned from ongoing research under the Principal Supervisor Initiative, a multi-year (Wallace Foundation-funded) project engaging six urban school districts (Broward County FL, Baltimore MD, Cleveland OH, Des Moines IA, Long Beach CA, and Minneapolis MN) in redefining principal supervision to better support principals to improve instruction in schools. The examples and key takeaways that Dr. Goldring shares in the video are relevant for all school districts regardless of size or location.
