Focus Group Participants Wanted: K-12 School Administrators Background/ Context: Educators and school administrators are asked with increasing frequency to handle controversial issues, free-speech disputes, and deepening polarization without necessarily having training or structured support in navigating these complex issues. To address this need, we are gathering information from existing and aspiring K-12 school administrators to inform development of comprehensive professional development content for K-12 leaders to acquire these important skills and increased support. Research Project Information: This project is the first joint research partnership between Penn State University and the Pennsylvania Council for International Education (PACIE). We want to collect much needed data to measure the impact of professional development support for educator-administrators navigating these critical issues in Pennsylvania schools. You are eligible to participate if you: Are 18+ years old Currently work as an administrator/ administrative role at a K-12 school / district in Pennsylvania What to do next/ expect? ·        Use the QR code or this link to RSVP for a date to participate in a 60-minute virtual focus group conversation and to complete a short survey ·        We will send you via email a calendar invite and Zoom link to confirm your registration for a focus group session ·        To thank you for participating, PACIE will provide a rebate of $40.00 toward your attendance at any PACIE-sponsored event or annual conference until December 31, 2028 Questions/ Concerns?
