The MASA Foundation is Proud to Sponsor: 

The Equity and Excellence in Education Network
“Triple E,” is a new offering by MASA. Dr. Katie Pekel of the University of Minnesota and Mr. Sebastian Witherspoon of Equity Alliance are working with MASA staff and the Triple E Steering Committee to guide this work. The MASA Foundation has generously provided funds to support MASA's Equity and Excellence in Education Network.

Professional Assistance Team (P.A.T.)
Check out the Professional Assistance Team (P.A.T) webpage!
 District administrators today often face daunting situations and tough decisions with limited resources for effective support and coaching. The Foundation believes the P.A.T program directly supports its mission of leadership development and individual support by meeting the immediate need of MASA members to confidentially discuss issues, seek advice, and receive valuable coaching from experienced and trusted MASA colleagues.
 
MASA Mentor/Mentee Program
MASA wants its members to be supported well so that they thrive and achieve success.  We believe that a strong mentoring program will support administrators new to their roles in building their capacity to lead their schools in student achievement growth. MASA provides first-year mentoring to any MASA member, regardless of the component group, who is new to their role or new to their role in Minnesota.  The MASA Mentor Program provides resources to address your specific development needs.  We use multiple strategies, including guidance and coaching, networking, training, emotional, professional and social support.  For further information, contact your MASA Regional Leader. Click Here to view the MASA Regional Information
