Great Start Cohort

MASA is committed to providing excellent professional development that will support administrators in their professional practice. Great Start Cohort members will have the opportunity to meet other new leaders, receive information from seasoned leaders, and develop practical skills designed to help them be successful in the first year of their new position. Whether participants are first-time superintendents or experienced superintendents new to Minnesota, this seven-session workshop series is a wonderful opportunity to address the challenges of a new superintendency together with others in similar situations!

Please encourage any new superintendents and administrators to register for the MASA Great Start Cohort!
