2002 ELCA Principal of the Year Now Being Sought

Each of the past two years, the principal that has been named ELCA Principal of the Year has also received recognition as a National Distinguished Principal. The Evangelical Lutheran Church In America Department For Schools is looking for that exceptional elementary or middle school principal to represent the ELCA in the Private school’s component of the National Distinguished Principal Award Program sponsored by the U. S. Department For Education and the National Association of Elementary School Principals.

If you know a principal that is

  • an active principal of a school in which a commitment to excellence is evident,

  • has been a principal for at least five years,

  • planning to remain in their current position during the 2001 - 2002 school year,

  • able to furnish in writing evidence of leadership to teachers, students, the school community, and the profession at large,

please contact Donna Braband, ELCA Acting Director For Department For Schools to nominate principals.

E-mail your nominations by December 15, 2001 to Dbraband@elca.org or call 800.638.3522 Extension 5074
