Participant Excerpt from Evaluation Report
Executive PASS
Executive PASS is a model funded through the PASS legislative allocation and private support. The program teams a business leader and principal to improve school and student performance emphasizing leadership development. The business leader and principal strategize and implement “doable” activities that lead to school and student success.
Currently approximately 90 partnerships exist in two counties and have a local coordinator who serves as a liaison between the principal and the business partner. The counties are: Miami-Dade and Broward. Eleven additional partnerships were funded through a two-year grant from the BankAtlantic Foundation in Miami-Dade and Broward counties.
