Anderson  \nSean Worley Aiesha Eleusizov Brenda J. Turnbull  \nPRINCIPAL PIPELINE SUSTAINABILITY GUIDE  \nIntroduction  \nIf your school district is working to strengthen the way it manages leadership talent in its principal pipeline, you are working for long-term benefits to students, teachers, and schools. Sustainability is the theme of this guide: how to ensure that what starts as an initiative to build an effective principal pipeline becomes a system with the staying power to function well and produce benefits for years to come. Determining how to sustain the successes of a major initiative is always important work, but it takes on special urgency now, at the time of publication of this guide in early 2023. That’s because districts can tap into COVID relief funding (from the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief, or ARP ESSER) to lay the groundwork for sustaining pipeline work, but they need to move quickly because the funding ends in 2025-26.  \nThis guide is the latest addition to a suite of tools Policy Studies Associates has been developing to help districts engage in pipeline development work. These publications stem from the Principal Pipeline Initiative, an effort, funded by The Wallace Foundation from 2011 to about 2016, in which six school districts demonstrated the feasibility and effectiveness of principal pipelines that comprise seven features, known as domains. This guide complements the Principal Pipeline Self-Study Guide for Districts, which maps these domains in detail and guides districts in assessing their current practices and planning how to advance and refine their pipelines. It also complements Strong Pipelines, Strong Principals, a guide that identifies options for tapping federal funds to support specific actions that strengthen a pipeline. And it offers a longer-term perspective for district teams that are taking steps to support assistant principals’progress to principal positions. (A forthcoming publication, Assistant Principal Advancement to the Principalship: A Guide for School Districts, provides detailed guidance for such steps. )  \nThis guide to pipeline sustainability is based on research and practitioners’ ideas from several sources, including a study of the sustainability of the pipelines implemented by the original six pipeline districts,1 the sustainability plans the districts submitted to Wallace during the grant period, a guidebook on implementing and sustaining institutional change,2 and the policy expertise of the consulting firm EducationCounsel on using federal sources for program funding. In addition, the guide draws on examples from the Wallace-funded ESSA Leadership Learning Community (ELLC),3 a six-year, 11-state initiative that yielded valuable lessons about ways in which cross-district partnerships and districts’ engagement with  \n1 Anderson, L.

As shown in Exhibit 1, these seven domains of what has come to be called “a comprehensive, aligned pipeline” include:  \n■ Leader standards, which include","cbCaihz8329AHMZk","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihz8329AHMZk","pdf",1093197,"English","# Introduction\n## Principal Pipeline Initiative Background\n## Seven Interrelated Pipeline Domains","[{\"question\":\"Why does the guide stress sustainability at the time of publication?\",\"answer\":\"Because districts can use ARP ESSER COVID relief funding to build pipeline work, but the funding ends in 2025-26, requiring districts to act quickly and plan for long-term continuation.\"},{\"question\":\"What research and practitioner sources inform the guide?\",\"answer\":\"It draws on study results from the original pipeline districts’ sustainability, Wallace-submitted sustainability plans, guidance on implementing and sustaining institutional change, policy expertise from EducationCounsel, and lessons from the Wallace-funded ESSA Leadership Learning Community.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the seven interrelated domains of a comprehensive aligned principal pipeline?\",\"answer\":\"They include leader standards; high-quality preservice principal preparation; selective hiring and placement; on-the-job evaluation and support; principal supervisors; leader tracking systems; and systems and sustainability.\"}]","Principal Pipeline Sustainability Guide - Introduction | PDF",1792059606,76]
