4 Our mission: To impact, over time, the quality of public education for all Texas students by supporting and developing educational leaders ESC Meetings Region 20 San Antonio FINAL.pptx 3

5 Why education leadership? Great leadership in critical roles significantly impacts student achievement Research says supporting leaders throughout our school systems can deliver great results for kids across the state After teachers, school leaders have the most significant influence on student outcomes Effective district leadership influences student achievement & is required to build and maintain successful schools Students' learning trajectories can only be turned-around by talented leadership Widely distributed leadership is more effective than leadership "from the top" Highly effective principals can raise achievement in their schools by as much as 2 to 7 months of learning in a single year ESC Meetings Region 20 San Antonio FINAL.pptx 4

6 Our approach is characterized by long-term partnerships that build districts capacity to develop leaders at scale Instead of 'quick fixes', take a long-view recognizing that meaningful improvement doesn't happen overnight Leadership isn't about superheroes; it requires teams & systems of leaders throughout the organization Holdsworth will not replace the district role in developing leaders; it will build districts' capacity Holdsworth won't peddle prescriptions, it will develop deep partnerships with school districts ESC Meetings Region 20 San Antonio FINAL.pptx 5
