Given the success of the SUPI pilot, the district approached The Education Fund about expanding SUPI from an effort aimed solely at assistant principals to one focused on developing and retaining leadership teams at each targeted school. To design the "new" SUPI, partners with particular expertise were asked to participate. The Miami Museum of Science was recruited for its experience in building FloridaLeaders.net, a Gates Foundation-funded initiative that used retired administrators to coach educational leaders. The Council for Educational Change, originally funded as an Annenberg model, was asked to participate for its online leadership assessment tool and online learning modules. These organizations joined The Education Fund and the district as partners in SUPI. This partnership continues today. Additionally, the Harvard National Institute for Urban School Leaders has become an integral part of the participant learning experience.
