Newsweek Magazine recently released its list of 1300 Top US high schools. Public schools were ranked according to the number of Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate and/or Cambridge tests taken by all students at a school in 2007. This number was divided by the number graduating seniors.

The results indicate that 80% of Florida schools listed in Newsweek magazine are partner districts that use Victoria, BC based Etraffic Solution’s Accelerated School Administrator Program (ASAP).

The Etraffic created Accelerated School Administrator Program (ASAP) helps districts to identify and guide quality candidates quickly and efficiently. The ASAP program is integrated into school district programs to support leadership candidates in individualized and group study. Research and common sense demonstrate that an effective principal is essential to school success.  Throughout North America, there is a shortage of qualified school administrators and a need to develop new ones. ASAP supports quality leadership development with a competency-based, rather than a time-based approach.

“From a program director’s point of view, the most exciting element of implementing Etraffic’s ASAP program has been the flexibility granted to us to adapt the wonderful features of ASAP to our own district and program needs. The Etraffic technical support that we receive has been outstanding. Only three months into implementation, we saw professional growth in our program participants due to their involvement with ASAP.” ~Theresa Croteau,
Director of Staff Development Leon County Schools, Florida
