The Midwest Principals’ Center is a professional organization for principals and other educational leaders.  It is located in the Chicago suburban area, with services available to interested leaders throughout the Midwest.  As part of our strategic plan, we continue to expand the type of membership, range of programs and services, and links with other organizations.  We offer several main programs each year to increase awareness of significant leadership issues. Through our collaboration with the regional offices of education, Administrator Academy credit may be available to those in Illinois who participate in a main program or general workshop.
