Maintaining a work/life balance is so important, but as a school principal or secretary, that may seem next to impossible. If you're buried office work, emails, "do-you-have-a-minutes," and juggling schedules on top of what you really want to be focusing on, we can help! Join us for 9th cohort of 21st Century School Office, where you and your secretary will develop a plan to make your school's office more efficient, proactive, and balanced.


Join us for this one of a kind professional development that has been created specifically for MESPA members, by MESPA members!

Some of MESPA's best and brightest principals, in partnership with their secretaries, have come together to develop a training to make your school office more efficient, organized, and effective so that you can focus on the work that really matters - kids!

Both principals and secretaries will benefit from this day long training that will help you and your school office team...

  • Run a school office efficiently
  • Develop a scheduling plan and protocol
  • Go home on time and have a better work-life balance
  • Communicate and problem solve effectively as a team
  • Create a plan for more efficient organization and STAY organized
  • Empower one another and build trust
  • Proactively manage crisis response
  • And more!
The results are in: hear what past participants are saying!
  • "As an early career principal, this session helped me understand what I could ask of and hand over to my secretary. We already have a great partnership, but this will really take us to another level of trust an efficiency. I think we've both been empowered!" - Principal Chreese Jones, The Heights Community School, St. Paul
