I would like to ask your help in another important search for the Director of Professional Learning and Program Innovation for San Antonio’s Pre-K 4 SA initiative.  PRE-K 4 SA is an innovative early childhood effort launched over three years ago by the City of San Antonio.  In the past school year, Pre-K 4 SA had a significant positive impact by directly educating over 1,700 4 year olds through full day Pre-K at four education centers and provided quality professional development for Pre-K though Grade 3 educators citywide.  Also, Pre-K 4 SA distributed over $4 million in competitive grants to local education providers to further reach San Antonio's young children.  

The Director of Professional Learning and Program Innovation is responsible for leading San Antonio's efforts to further develop an exceptional early childhood teacher professional learning initiative as part of the Pre­-K 4 SA program.  In addition, the Director will help lead the efforts for Pre-K 4 SA on curriculum design, innovative programs and research collaboration that will help to distinguish the Pre­-K 4 SA program from other early childhood education programs in San Antonio and throughout the US.  The Director will lead a team of 17 instructional coaches and 4 Assistant Directors.
