The Standards-Based Practice master’s degree program has three goals:

  • to develop teacher leaders who practice teaching skills aligned with the NBPTS's Five Core Propositions (see Guiding Principles),
  • to develop teacher expertise in a content area of choice, and
  • to empower teachers to assume leadership roles within their schools and districts.

The program is designed for teachers who desire to develop and hone their leadership skills and who wish to remain in the classroom. The program approaches leadership from the perspectives of exemplary teaching, continuous learning for all, a need to balance change with stability and the importance of peaceful existence in a diverse community of learners.

To that end, teachers will enhance their abilities to lead not only in their classrooms, but also in the school at large by working with curriculum, becoming mentor/master teachers, developing new programs, and a variety of other activities that improve schooling for all children.
