Mrs. White Is Participant Shirley H. White, of Vaughan Elementary School, is among a group of public school principals from throughout the state who are participating in a new professional-level management course for principals. The Prin cipals' Executive Program, which began in Sept. 1984, is of fered by the Institute of Govern ment at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The program is designed to teach the skills and provide the knowledge that will help public school principals in managing their schools. The curriculum is organized around 23 major phases of school management, in cluding such areas as long-range planning, leadership, personnel management, effective com munication. policy-making, cur riculum analysis and financial management The current course is the seventh one offered and is being taught in Chapel Hill during four five-day sessions from April through June. Two more iden tical courses will be provided during 1986. The principals will attend 115 sessions during the 20 days and several evenings they spend in the classroom. The pro gram is the longest in-service residence program for principals in the United States. The program is being taught by a faculty of 65 including instruc tional staff from the Institute of Government, the School of Edu cation, the School of Business Ad ministration and the College of Arts and Sciences at UNC-Chapel Hill as well as experts from the Department of Public Instruc tion, other universities in the state and practicing school administrators. Participants for the program were selected on the basis of nominations submitted by their superintendents. Each school superintendent in the state was a-.ked to submit at least one nominee. The Principals' Executive pro gram reflects a legislative judg ment that principals are a key if not the single most important fac tor in the quality of a school. The Institute of Government expects the program to make a major contribution to improved man agement and leadership in the North Carolina public schools.
