Elevating Excellence

The Association of Latino Administrators and Superintendents (ALAS) is a national nonprofit association dedicated to providing leadership development for all school and district leaders who serve Latino youth or other historically marginalized students.

By the year 2026, Latino children will make up 30 percent of the school-age population. It is of vital importance to invest in the education of every child and the professional learning of all education leaders who serve Latino youth.

ALAS empowers its members personally and professionally by providing leadership development programs, services, advocacy and networks rooted in Latino experiences and culture. Programs such as our Superintendents Leadership Academy, the National Principal Leadership Academy, the National Summit on Education, On-the-Hill Advocacy events and our networks and committees foster, highlight and scale equitable and transformative leadership practices of promise that ensure that pressing issues in education are voiced.

With more than nearly 20 state and regional affiliate chapters serving more than 31 million students, ALAS is dedicated to building a brighter future together for students by creating a platform for collaboration, growth, and impactful change in the education sector.

Join a prestigious community of education leaders dedicated to excellence. Our academies offer transformative professional development experiences designed to equip superintendents and principals with the knowledge, skills, and networks necessary to drive positive change in their schools and districts.
