Fostering School Community
Through their time together at Notre Dame and at their respective internship sites, ACE Leadership participants are called to grow together, to support one another, and to challenge each other as they develop personally, professionally, and spiritually. The program offers periodic retreats to provide its teachers with skills for fostering successful school community.
ACE Leadership participants learn spiritual and administrative strategies that empower them to establish, nurture, and maintain a lived experience of community life within the school, starting with the faculty and staff and extending to the parent community, local church, and the broader civic network. As administrative interns, they are involved in a variety of leadership responsibilities, including curriculum evaluation and development, supervision of faculty and staff, campus ministry, athletic administration, and other areas as assigned by their mentor principal. The experience is designed to support the ACE Leadership participant in becoming a full and active member of the school community while modeling the behaviors necessary to assume a full-time leadership position.
