IASA is pleased to offer this brand new cohort: SuperPals Cohort: Leading with Purpose in Dual Roles

Serving as both superintendent and principal is a unique and demanding role—one that requires balancing big-picture leadership with the daily realities of building-level impact. The SuperPals Cohort designed specifically for leaders like you who navigate this dual responsibility every day and best of all it is at no cost to those who wish to participate.

This new cohort creates a space where your experiences are understood and valued. Together, we will explore the distinct challenges and opportunities that come with serving in both roles, while sharing practical strategies to support your work, strengthen your leadership, and sustain your impact. If you are looking for a network that recognizes both the complexity and the importance of your role—and is committed to helping you thrive within it—SuperPals is for you.

The SuperPals cohort will meet online via Zoom on the first Wednesday of the month (September to December) from 9 am to 10:30 am.

One in person session will be offered on Thursday, October 1, 2026 in coordination with the IASA Annual Conference.
