's top assistant principal goes to Washington CHRONICLE STAFF REPORT Wiley Middle School Assistant Principal Leigh Walters recently traveled to Washington, D.C. to be honored as the North Carolina Assistant Principal of the Year as part of events honoring national and state assistant principals of the year from across the nation. The D.C. program was spon sored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) and Virco. Inc. During her time in D.C., Walters spent a day on Capitol Hill discussing education issues with North Carolina legislators, including U.S. Sen. Richard Burr and his leg islative assistant Christopher Toppings, U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan and her education policy advi sor Ashely Eden and U.S. Rep. Virginia Foxx's leg islative correspondent Meghan Stringer. The topics discussed included reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, Title I, parent accountabil ity and raising the dropout age to 18. To thank them for their time, Walters pre sented lawmakers with the Arbinger Institute's "The Anatomy of Peace." Walters also heard from U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, who spoke during the assistant principals' forum and black-tie awards gala. Each assistant principal was invited on stage to receive his or her award and be formally recog nized for their achieve ments. "There are no great schools without great teams, without great prin cipals, and without great assistant principals," Duncan said. "As a parent, thank you so much. If we could find ways to clone you guys, clone your expertise... (we'd) have a chance to take education to an entirely different level in this country." As part of the three day forum. Walters also took advantage of numer ous professional develop ment opportunities, a roundtable discussion with members from the U.S. Department of Education on how to allo cate funds to develop, attract and retain more effective leaders in a high needs school and discus sions of best practices with assistant principals from around the nation.
