This course will investigate the skills and information needed for school leaders to manage the organization, operations, and facilities in ways that maximize the use of resources to promote a safe, efficient, legal, and effective learning environment.

Activities and simulations will be used to illustrate key themes. One such activity might involve a scenario in which the school building has suffered an extreme break in the water main, causing an entire sidewalk to burst and flood into a major hallway of the school. Participants would need to consider options with the best impact/ least disruption to the flow of instruction for students and teachers.

Reflection Logs and Key Terms will be completed following the Reflection Journal and Key Term Guide sheets distributed to participants. Participants keep these information sheets in their own portfolios to be used for future reference. The administrator of this program may elect to review such portfolios at will or at particular junctures in the program.
