The school administrators information and networking place
Purpose
The purpose of the Principals Study Council is to promote the continuous improvement of public education in Tennessee by communicating to the State Board of Education and/or the State Department of Education suggestions for improving education, including task force reports, position papers, and recommendations. Providing in-service education opportunities that are designed to develop the leadership skills of principals is key.
Membership
Membership in the Principals Study Council is open to every public school principal, assistant principal and administrator in a similar position.
