Platform

NAESP's Platform describes our views about the state of elementary and middle-level education and the steps we are taking to increase the recognition of the principal as the authority in the supervision and administration of elementary and middle-level schools. The Platform contains a summary of all resolutions adopted by business meetings and Delegate Assemblies since 1974, and it is divided into three sections:

· Educating the whole child
· The principal’s role as instructional leader
· Curriculum and instruction

The Platform guides the work NAESP conducts on behalf of its members, and NAESP’s Advocacy department works with legislators on Capitol Hill and other government officials to ensure that federal education policy reflects the priorities of NAESP’s members.

Each year, NAESP’s Resolutions Committee reviews the Platform and suggests changes. These changes are then voted upon by the NAESP Delegate Assembly.
