New Superintendent Support Programs

IAPSS proudly provides support to new superintendents through TWO amazing opportunities, the
New Superintendent Academy and the
New Superintendent Mentor Program. These these two programs provide complementary support for first-time superintendents to foster a great transition.

New Superintendent Academy

The IAPSS New Superintendent Academy consists of two seminars that provide information and awareness necessary for a new district leader to navigate their role. For the 2023-2024 school year, the seminars will take place on October 4, 2023 and March 14, 2024.

New Superintendent Mentor Program

The IAPSS New Superintendent Mentor Program is a relationship-based one-on-one mentor/mentee partnership grounded in ongoing communication and 27/4 support. Mentors are selected and trained based on the needs of our incoming superintendents.

It is recommended that new superintendents participate in BOTH IAPSS New Superintendent Programs, as they are designed to provide complementary support.
