Principal Fellowships - Chicago Public Education Fund

Data indicate that while principal performance tends to increase through year four, only 56 percent of Chicago’s principals stay for the start of their fifth year. To address this issue, our grantmaking strategy includes working to significantly improve the conditions in which principals lead schools, ultimately increasing the number of principals who remain in Chicago. We have a long way to go: Despite high levels of general satisfaction reported in our annual Principal Engagement Surveys, principals overwhelmingly tell us that their jobs are simply unsustainable.

More than 40 percent of top Chicago principals told us they plan to leave within the next three years of taking the survey; 20 percent in the next year. To achieve our city’s shared goals for public school excellence, we must make Chicago the best city in America for school leadership.
