Illinois Principals Foundation

Donate Online
Good schools start with good principals. A principal is an educator, a leader, a mentor, and much more. But one thing is certain: good principals are a key factor for good schools. Research has found that the most significant educational advances happen in the buildings where students and administrators interact.And that is our goal: to help principals across the state become the best they can be, by giving them tools to expand their horizons, learn from each other and help them interact more effectively with students.

The Illinois Principals Foundation was originally established to fund research and monographs in the areas of school improvement, educational leadership and the principalship. It has allowed continuing education opportunities for the best principals in Illinois to become mentors and trainers for other principals. Recently, the Foundation has supported continuing education for IPA members through the John Ourth/Fred Singleton Professional Development Scholarships and providing resources to conference attendees. Additionally, support has been given to Illinois students through the Kids Helping Kids project. The Illinois Principals Foundation is “Providing resources to strengthen school leadership in Illinois,” and has the following goals:

  • Support professional development for school administrators,
  • Maintain a professional development resource library,
  • Support and disseminate research and best practices on school improvement, leadership and the principalship,
  • Provide resources for schools to develop innovative practices,
  • Develop an annual special project that will benefit the membership of the IPA,
  • and Support the needs of Illinois schoolchildren through special projects.
