Educational Leadership (in Administration and Supervision) |
The educational leadership degree program is for teachers who hold at least a Collegiate Professional License or equivalent from another state, have taught successfully for at least two years, and wish to pursue a career in school administration. Students are provided preparation for administrative and/or supervisory roles in public and private schools. A three-credit internship (200 clock hours) must be taken and scheduled during the last one or two semesters of the program. Students wishing to obtain the administrative and supervisory preK-12 endorsement must take the School Leaders Licensure Assessment (SLLA) before applying to the Virginia Department of Education for the endorsement. Students should take the SLLA no earlier than the final semester in the program and have scores sent to Longwood University.
