Vacancies in principals' offices are expected to leap 10 to 20 percent by the end of 2005. Nowhere is the shortage of school principals more acute than in New York City New York, as most states in America, is demanding that schools meet high standards, but how can students succeed if we do not have strong professionals leading the way. A major question is where are the leaders for our urban school systems going to come from in the future. Dr. Judith Rizzo, deputy chancellor for instruction for the New York City Board of Education, also will speak at this event. More than 300 leaders in the teaching profession will be attending this event, which is being sponsored by The Chase Manhattan Foundation, The McGraw-Hill Companies, J.P. Morgan, The Overbrook Foundation, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, and Verizon.
