ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
We would like to thank the following groups and individuals for their contributions to the VELA Legacy Project. Our pilot teams and consultants informed our content and design. Our professional leadership associations have provided encouragement, suggestions and resources. Without their knowledge, insight, patience and hard work, this project would not have been possible. In addition to those listed below, many other individuals provided input as this resource was field tested and revised in 2004-2005. Their contributions made this a more powerful tool for school leaders and are greatly appreciated.
