Modern School Leader Cohort

June 25 - July 25, 2025

School leaders drive the vision for student learning. But how do you build that vision and drive forward change?

Join the Leadership Cohort, Transform Your School:

  • Get Inspired: See what’s possible at partner schools that have already gone through the fellowship.

  • Learn the Approach that is transforming classrooms, instruction, and ultimately, student achievement.

  • Build a Vision: Collaborate with other school leaders and receive hands-on support in creating a path forward.

  • Lead Change: Identify lead educators and support them as exemplars on this transformational journey.

In spring 2023, 83% of teachers using the Modern Classrooms Project said students were more excited to attend class.

A Deeper Look at the Cohort

A Discovery Visit

You’re invited to see a Modern Classroom in action! We will work together to determine a time and place that works for you - and we will reimburse travel up to $750. Discovery visits are optional, but encouraged.

Modern School Leader Credential

Everyone who completes the cohort earns a Modern School Leader credential and digital badge, showing they’ve completed 15 hours of professional learning.

Asynchronous Learning

You will receive 5-10 hours of asynchronous learning, where you’ll work through self-paced activities that help you build a foundation for successful leadership and instructional support.

Virtual Sessions

Deepen your knowledge and sharpen your ability to provide feedback in synchronous online sessions with leaders from around the country. You can choose between morning or evening sessions - or a combination of the two - all based on what works for your schedule.

School-Based Leadership

Get teachers involved in virtual mentorship and support them as they experiment with student-centered learning strategies. Help your teachers build the classroom communities that will help your students thrive.

This opportunity is open to school leaders, including principals, assistant principals, or instructional coaches.
