OAESP Leadership Conference
TeleLEAD is preparing the beginning of our 3rd year. TeleLEAD returns on September 7th. TeleLEAD meets on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month. We are in need of case studies to present. If you have a case study for consideration, please get in touch with me. FERPA and privacy are guaranteed.
The OAESP Executive Committee approved changes to the OAESP Conference. The conference will be held November 9-10, 2022 at the Embassy Suites OKC Downtown/ Medical Center. Information about the conference including keynote speaker, registration and hotel reservations will be released in August. The reason for the change in date is to avoid any weather disruptions. The format is also changing from a 1 day conference to a day and a half. This will allow for some breakout sessions. RFPs for breakout sessions will be released in late August/early September. Please mark your calendars now to join us for the OAESP Leadership Conference.
New Principals Academy The New Principals Academy is designed to promote an interactive discussion on topics essential for participants to develop understanding and knowledge of the leadership role at the school level. The purpose is to provide guidance to steer an early career principal or assistant principal through the initial period of adjustment as a beginning administrator and set the foundation for a long and rewarding career as a school administrator. The academy meets four times in the fall semester and once in the spring for an advocacy experience.
