The Memphis Leadership Fellows program is a year-long leadership development program designed to prepare principals for school leadership nationwide. Program participants are identified through a rigorous selection process from individuals who aspire to be principals and currently hold a principal’s license. This “pathway" was established to ensure that a pool of highly qualified leaders is available from which individuals can be selected to assume positions in West Tennessee schools as principals. The Memphis Leadership Fellows Program has a single, clear focus: to provide outstanding leaders who promote high levels of academic achievement for all students in West Tennessee schools. Candidates selected as one of the participants each year are known as Leadership Fellows.

This innovative leadership development program contains the following components:

• Rigorous Recruitment and Selection
• Intensive Experiential Learning Orientation
• Mentoring Principals/Administrators
• Cohort Group
• High Quality Coursework/Seminars
• Team Problem Solving
