Leadership Guiding Values

Equity leadership is critical. It is essential that all SPPS staff are racial equity leaders in partnership with students, families, and the community.

We want the best. To ensure that we hire the best instructional leaders to guide our school communities, we will implement a competitive process and solicit feedback from our school communities to ensure the best match.

Strategy is a must. Transformational leadership is mission and vision driven. School improvement does not occur in a vacuum, rather it takes purposeful and strategic actions.

Continuous Improvement is key. Our leaders will pursue excellence by identifying and strengthening what is working well, and interrupt systems that marginalize or inhibit student learning.

Leadership is a journey. We want leaders at all levels in our organization to be aspirational and whenever possible, provide them with ways to select opportunities and actualize their dreams.
