Our Lady of Holy Cross College offers Master of Education degree in "Educational Leadership". This is a 36- hour program based upon State and National Standards within the context of providing a personalized approach to education.
The Graduate Education Program incorporates the College's philosophy and mission into its own statement of philosophy and conceptual framework. The philosophy of the program is to nurture students into self-developing, competent professionals who can contribute to their community both personally and professionally. To carry out this philosophy, the program emphasizes the whole person's development in areas of cognitive, intrapersonal, and interpersonal skills to live responsibly, respect individuality, and seek truth and peace, and foster justice in society. The philosophy of the whole person's development is stressed in the Education Department's Conceptual Framework which is "Developing Reflective Stewards: Educating the Mind and Heart and Providing Experiential Service." The Graduate Education Program implements its philosophy and conceptual framework through objectives that focus on improving candidates' knowledge, skills, and dispositions.
The program in Educational Leadership allows Louisiana-certified teachers, who complete the program, to apply for Louisiana Certification as an "Educational Leader." This certification will allow the holder to serve as a building level administrator (principal or assistant principal) as well as district level administrator (supervisor through assistant superintendent). The center piece of the program is to prepare educational leaders with the knowledge and skills to improve student learning by improving the teaching/learning process in our schools.
