Secondary Principals Implementation Network (SPIN) is a unique professional development opportunity designed specifically for Secondary Principals who are implementing an action plan for improvement and need support to bring out the best in their school plan and their people. SPIN brings together a collaborative group of high striving school administrators focused on improving student achievement at their school sites and connects them to: effective secondary school research, models of high poverty/high performing schools, and focused implementation support. The SPIN target audience is: Middle School and High School Principals of Title I Schools, State Decile Rankings 1 or 2 OR Program Improvement Cohorts 1, 2 or 3. Participation is limited to 30 Principals.
