Master Principal Program

ALA Now Accepting Master Principal Program Applications for 2023-2024!

The Arkansas Leadership Academy (ALA) is pleased to announce that we are accepting applications for all phases of the Master Principal Program for the 2023-2024 school year.

The Master Principal Program (MPP) was established through the passage of Act 44 of the Second Extraordinary Session of the 2003 Arkansas General Assembly to provide “training programs and opportunities to expand the knowledge base and leadership skills of public school principals.” MPP consists of three phases. A school principal successfully completing all phases and designation requirements of the program is designated as a Master Principal by the Arkansas Leadership Academy and is eligible for bonuses.
