Title | National Conference for Latino Educational Leaders, Oct. 28-30 |
Body | Association of Latino Administrators and Superintendents (ALAS) National Conference for Latino Educational Leaders: Realizing the Vision October 28-30, 2004 SwissĂ´tel Chicago Chicago, Illinois We extend to you an invitation and challenge to attend the first national conference of the Association of Latino Administrators and Superintendents (ALAS). The focus is on developing, networking and recognizing the leadership talent of Latino educators across the country. Today the need for Latino leaders in education is more critical than ever. By the year 2025, Latino children will make up 25 percent of the school-age population. In the nation's largest states - California Texas, Florida, and New York - Latinos already have reached that level. Prepared and committed Latinos are needed to lead our schools and to effectively serve our children, parents and communities. The challenge we issue is for current administrators to bring and mentor a future administrator. During the conference, there will be workshops and training sessions for the experienced superintendent and the administrator aspiring to become a superintendent. There will also be ample opportunity to share your experiences, ideas and energy. The many subjects to be addressed reflect the challenges Latino administrators are facing, and the growing complexities of the educational system, as well as focusing on serving the Latino student. You'll learn how to further develop your leadership skills, and you'll see how experienced superintendents grapple firsthand with difficult political climates. And you'll find out how Latino educators have learned how to move ahead. In addition, ALAS will offer sessions around the topic of "Becoming A Superintendent". These sessions will provide you with valuable insight on the superintendency, including "The Superintendent Application and Search Process," "Professional Standards for the Superintendency," "Development of the Superintendent Contract", "Women in the Superintendency," and "Building a Strong Superintendent and Board Team." We believe that you will find the quality of this conference to be extraordinary. We are confident that you will be revitalized, inspired and better able to lead. Register today, on-line, by phone, or by mail. We look forward to seeing you on October 28th, 29th and 30th in Chicago!
