Aspiring principals from public school systems in Anson, Cumberland, Harnett, Hoke, Lee, Montgomery, Moore, Richmond, and Scotland counties, and the Public Schools of Robeson County will participate in the Sandhills Leadership Academy in partnership with Fayetteville State University, the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, and NCCAT. As part of a multi-year program, NCCAT will host the Sandhills Leadership Academy during their summer institute.
