School Districts are currently seeking applications for Superintendent of Schools.
Leaders Partnering with Leaders
Missouri public schools belong to the communities they serve. Responsibility for governing and leading these public bodies is granted to the locally elected board and the education professionals it hires to lead the school district. To fulfill these responsibilities, boards and superintendents must have the services of a dedicated partner who is committed to supporting the district with training, assessment, planning, and professional guidance to build a strong governance team.

Board Development
To effectively meet the challenges of public education, school boards and superintendents must function together as a leadership team. Each leadership team must annually assess its development needs both as a governing body and as individuals.
School Governance Audits
One unique service offered by our SGLA’s team is the conduct of a comprehensive governance audit to examine the District’s compliance with various governance-related legal and policy requirements.
Governance and Strategic Planning
If you want to end with student success, you must begin with a strategic plan for governing the District. We believe that only the Board of Education, as the elected governing body of the District, can establish such a plan and set the direction for the District.

Think about the time, money and effort your district makes in teacher professional development every year. Staff training is incredibly important, but it could go to waste if your executive leadership and governance team isn’t also well trained and functioning at an optimal level.
“Educators are arc benders. Teachers and school leaders bend the arc of the lives of the children they serve upward each day, sometimes directly, sometimes indirectly, and frequently in ways that cannot be readily seen or quantified. The true impact of an educator is often best defined by conscience.”
– Duane Martin, EGL Team Member
