                               RESOLUTION


 
Recognizing the month of October 2010 as ``National Principals Month''.

Whereas the National Association of Elementary School Principals and the 
        National Association of Secondary School Principals have declared the 
        month of October 2010 as ``National Principals Month'';
Whereas school leaders are expected to be educational visionaries, instructional 
        leaders, assessment experts, disciplinarians, community builders, public 
        relations experts, budget analysts, facility managers, special programs 
        administrators, and guardians of various legal, contractual, and policy 
        mandates and initiatives, as well as being entrusted with our young 
        people, our most valuable resource;
Whereas principals set the academic tone for their schools and work 
        collaboratively with teachers to develop and maintain high curriculum 
        standards, develop mission statements, and set performance goals and 
        objectives;
Whereas the vision, dedication, and determination of a principal provides the 
        mobilizing force behind any school reform effort; and
Whereas the celebration of ``National Principals Month'' would honor elementary, 
        middle level, and high school principals and recognize the importance of 
        school leadership in ensuring that every child has access to a high-
        quality education: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) recognizes the month of October 2010 as ``National 
        Principals Month''; and
            (2) honors the contribution of school principals in the 
        elementary and secondary schools of our Nation by supporting 
        the goals and ideals of ``National Principals Month''.
