LSI and the Maine Center for Leadership and Innovation (MCLI) are partnering to increase professional and sustainable leadership practices within a consortium of school districts. LSI empowers schools and districts to transform core instruction and leadership practices, building systems’ capacity to sustain the improvements. Maine Leadership Teams build district capacity for change by bringing together instructional leaders from every level, from superintendents to teacher leaders: anyone who will be responsible for leading implementation. Only through the creation and development of great teams will we make substantive and lasting changes in our educational systems.
