Who We Look For
Since its beginning in 2020, LEAD has grown every year. From 16 participants in Cohort 1 to 45 participants in Cohort 5, one thing that has not changed is that LEAD fellows are passionate, faith-filled educators who are committed to improving educational opportunities for children in Catholic schools.
LEAD is open to all, and ideal candidates for LEAD possess a strong desire to grow professionally and to strengthen their leadership skills. They are eager to learn more about the experiences of Latino educators and students. Additionally, ideal candidates are committed to Catholic education and exhibit a desire to continue growing in their faith.
