About North Lawndale College Preparatory Charter High School

Since its founding over 25 years ago, North Lawndale College Preparatory Charter High School’s (NLCP) mission is to equip scholars from under-resourced communities for graduation from high school with the academic skills and personal resilience necessary for successful completion of college. NLCP has graduated nearly 2,000 alumni, 99% of whom have been accepted to college. NLCP has built a proud legacy of empowering scholars to graduate, matriculate to college, and become productive citizens and innovators in the community.

The community of North Lawndale is a vibrant and historically significant neighborhood on Chicago's west side, with roots dating back to the civil rights movement and Great Migration. This community has been home to transformative leaders, cultural innovators, and generations of families who have built a strong foundation of resilience and hope. Today, North Lawndale is home to nationally and internationally recognized elementary and high schools that reflect the community's commitment to educational excellence.

About the Principal Role

The Principal of North Lawndale College Prep will lead the school’s academic vision and strategy to improve student outcomes and create the conditions for students and staff to thrive.

Develop and implement strategies to strengthen enrollment by cultivating relationships with prospective students, families, feeder schools, and community partners.
Collaborate with parents, community members, senior leadership, board members, and external stakeholders to accelerate student achievement through innovative strategies.

Build Systems and Support for Accountability and Transparency

Manage core school operations including but not limited to budget, facilities, discipline, attendance, scheduling, records, grade reporting, and extracurricular programs, in alignment with the organization’s policies and priorities.
Administer programs for students with special needs, English language learners, and other specialized populations, including coordination of Title I and other grant funding.
Establish performance management processes to evaluate the effectiveness of programs, school safety, and operational efficiency.
Create proactive systems that garner feedback from parents, educators, and students to inform school progress, performance, and safety.
Identify and advocate for appropriate resources to ensure alignment in implementation.
