The 4 Dimensions of Instructional Leadership framework are not the sum total of the work of instructional leaders; rather, they are a description of the most salient aspects of instructional leadership.

The concepts of the framework are based on five core beliefs. They drive the work at the Center for Educational Leadership. The core beliefs are:

1. Instructional leadership is learning-focused, learning for both students and adults, and learning which is measured by improvement in instruction and in the quality of student learning.
2. Instructional leadership must reside with a team of leaders of which the principal serves as the “leader of leaders.”
3. A culture of public practice and reflective practice is essential for effective instructional leadership and the improvement of instructional practice.
4. Instructional leadership addresses the cultural, linguistic, socioeconomic and learning diversity in the school community.
5. Instructional leadership focuses upon the effective management of resources and of people — recruiting, hiring, developing, evaluating — particularly in changing environments.

Patty Maxfield, the Center for Educational Leadership District Coach will provide the Governing Board with a deeper understanding of the work that has been going on this year and how it can be used to guide future plans for the District.  The intent is to provide an opportunity for Board members to ask questions about the work and clarify how they can further support these efforts as well.

The Governing Board must approve a Notice of Completion in order for the final retention payment to be released to the contractor.

The draft plan will be presented and feedback will be solicited to guide our work.  As part of this process, the District will be submitting an application for an Advancement Grant.  The Advancement Grant Program offers financial support to Los Angeles County school districts aiming to provide quality arts education for public school students. Grant funds assist school districts in achieving key action items in their district arts plans, and cultivating skills and practices that can be sustained beyond the term of the grant. Districts may apply for matching funds of up to $25,000.
