21CSLA Mid-State Regional Academy
The purpose of 21CSLA is to support educational leaders - teacher leaders, site leaders, and district leaders - in order to improve campus culture and climate, create more equitable learning environments, and ultimately boost student success.
The 21CSLA Program is designed to develop a new generation of leaders who are committed to equitable leadership and a school-wide vision to serve ALL students.
Leaders for equity transform education to improve access, opportunity, and inclusion, for students and adults, especially those who are systematically marginalized and historically underserved, so that they can thrive.
The Mid-State Regional Academy offers three types of professional learning opportunities through the reignited 21st Century California School Leadership Academy (21CSLA). The Mid-State Regional Academy is led by the Madera County Superintendent of Education and consists of a geographic region including 11 California counties: Madera, Kings, Tulare, Merced, Stanislaus, Mono, Inyo, Santa Cruz, San Benito, Monterey.
Upcoming Events
Interested in attending an event?
Community of Practices
Communities of Practice are cohorts of job-alike leaders who share a similar Problem-of-Practice and a desire to systematically address this problem through a continuous improvement framework alongside regional thought partners. Communities will meet periodically throughout the school year with the support of facilitators. School and district leaders are encouraged to participate as teams to maximize LEA capacity building.
Localized Professional Learning
Participants in the 21CSLA Localized Professional Learning offerings will have access to an equity-focused menu of opportunities that will support your efforts toward continuous improvement.
Leadership Coaching
21CSLA provides individual coaching for leaders – teacher leaders, site leaders, and district leaders – interested in professional growth through the lens of equity and continuous improvement. 21CSLA coaches are current and retired leaders with extensive knowledge of leadership practices.
Universal Transitional Kindergarten
The 21CSLA’s UTK Leadership Initiative will include no-cost professional learning for leaders, featuring a “train-the-trainer” model and certification, development of learning modules with more than 60 hours of content, design and piloting of multiple professional learning opportunities, and evaluation and research to continually improve the effort.
