Achieving Excellence
In existence since 1976, the North Carolina Principals and Assistant Principals’ Association is the preeminent organization and state voice for principals, assistant principals and aspiring school leaders.
NCPAPA was established with the firm belief that strong positive administrative leadership is the determining factor in the quality of a child’s public education in North Carolina. Today NCPAPA represents 5,000 members from across the state and is the state's primary contractor for leadership development.
As one voice we aim to promote excellence in educational leadership for the State of North Carolina.
Through funding from the Belk Foundation and NCDPI, NCPAPA will establish the AP Accelerator Program, a statewide leadership initiative for rigorously selected Assistant Principals with a high potential for being fast-tracked into the principalship.
The North Carolina Principals and Assistant Principals’ Association (NCPAPA) has selected Morehead City Middle School Assistant Principal Mrs. Allison Graham as the 2022 North Carolina Secondary Assistant Principal of the Year.
Cumberland County Schools (CCS) is pleased to announce that Dr. Queesha Tillman, a 16-year veteran educator and CCS' 2022 Assistant Principal of the Year, has been selected as the 2022 North Carolina Outstanding Elementary Assistant Principal of the Year (APOY) by the North Carolina Principals & Assistant Principals Association (NCPAPA).
