The Sandhills Leadership Academy advances the field of school leadership by producing principals with a focus on getting results. The goals of the program are to create schools where students achieve at a high level, are globally competitive for work and postsecondary education, and are prepared for life in the twenty-first century. Last July, the first cohort of future educational leaders began their preparation with their first summer institute at NCCAT’s Cullowhee campus. NCCAT’s Ocracoke campus is proud to serve as a setting for the successful fellows’ launch into service as educational leaders in high-need schools in North Carolina.
