The Distinguished Educational Leadership Awards

Most educators agree that the level of excellence a school achieves is directly related to the level of leadership provided by its principal. Each year The Post recognizes those principals who go beyond the day-to-day demands of their position to create an exceptional educational environment. The 19 awardees from local public school systems and one awardee from a private school in the metropolitan area are honored at a reception at The Post and participate in an educational seminar.

The selections from the local school systems are made through a nominating process and the final decision is made by the local public school system. Nominees from private schools are screened by a committee of educators and community leaders through the coordinating efforts of the Council for American Private Education. For information on private school nominations, call The Post's Public Relations Department at 202-334-7969.

All nominees must maintain their position as principal throughout the 2008-2009 school year. To nominate a principal for the Distinguished Educational Leadership Award, please download the application.
