Master of Science in Administration, School Leadership (M.S.A.)

Trinity’s Master of Science in Administration (MSA) in educational administration prepares graduate students for a leadership position at an elementary, middle, or high-school level.

Designed for busy educators, this 5-semester master’s degree program offers classes that meet one weekend a month and features an internship completed in the school where you already work.

Trinity’s faculty are current and former school administrators who will teach you to promote high student achievement by fostering a collaborative culture and a focus on teaching and learning. Candidates learn to use assessments to facilitate continual school improvement through instructional planning and professional development for teachers around instructional strategies.

The degree program prepares graduates to take the School Leadership Licensure Assessment (SLLA).

Successful completion of the educational administration program at Trinity Washington University will meet the education requirements necessary to pursue the Administrative Services Credential in the District of Columbia and certification in most states in which a student intends to practice.
