United Tribes
Principal Leadership for American Indians in
Native Schools (UT-PLAINS)
The UT PLAINS project is a partnership between
United Tribes Technical College (UTTC), the
University of North Dakota (UND) and up to 15
partner school
districts to prepare American Indian elementary
and secondary principals for
leadership in schools with significant populations
of American Indian students. This project is
designed to address the chronic shortage of
certified and culturally responsive American
Indian elementary and secondary principals in
North Dakota. The UT PLAINS project provides
an intensive, coherent and sustained leadership
development program focusing on leadership for
systemic reform. The participants will complete
master's degree program based upon current research
and aligned to accreditation standards that
will enable participants to receive an elementary
or secondary principal's credential in the state
of North Dakota. In addition, UT PLAINS project
participants will also
complete a full-year personalized induction
program to successfully induct
them into their administrative position.
