Dr. Jamie Piraino: Building Leadership Capacity

Dr. Jamie Piraino's path to the superintendency started in high school when his wrestling coach encouraged him to mentor younger kids on the team. Through that mentoring, he found that he had a talent for leadership and working with students—and the rest is history. 

Now the superintendent of Franklin Regional School District in Pennsylvania, he's working to give his staff and students the encouragement he once received. Whether it's mentoring teachers or partnering with local businesses to provide students with career experience, Piraino is developing leadership in his district, both for the present and the future.
