This Memorial, titled "Develop Plan For School Leaders," is a resolution that requests the legislative education study committee to create a comprehensive plan for improving school principal preparation and support in New Mexico. This plan, developed in collaboration with various state agencies like the Public Education Department (PED) and the Higher Education Department, aims to address deficiencies in the current system, build on existing recommendations, and incorporate best practices from national and international models. The goal is to enhance the recruitment, preparation, evaluation, and professional development of school principals and other educational leaders to ensure every child in New Mexico has access to skilled leaders who can create equitable and thriving school environments. The committee is also tasked with reporting its findings and recommendations by December 31, 2022.
