Law Ting Pong Secondary School is very proud to announce that The Association for Supervision & Curriculum Development (ASCD), the leading international non-profit education leadership association, has selected Mr. Wong Tze-fung Gary, our Head of Chinese Department, as a member of the 2012 Emerging Leaders Class.
The 2012 Emerging Leaders program recognized 26 educators, ranging from chemistry specialists to academic services administrators, hailing from across the globe and educating students from Hong Kong to Sarcoxie, Mo. The purpose of the program is to prepare young, promising educators to influence education programs, policy and practice, on both the local and national levels.
Mr. Wong was selected by an advisory panel composed of ASCD staff, leaders and emerging leader alumni. He will be enrolled in the program for two years and will work closely with other professionals from around the world, who provide support and guidance in professional development.
Throughout the program, leaders will have the opportunity to pursue various leadership pathways – such as hosting networking events for educators, advocating for sound education policy, serving on committees and contributing to ASCD publications.
Emerging leaders are invited to attend ASCD’s Leader to Leader Conference held in late July every year, where they have the opportunity to encounter new ideas, resources and best practices from other ASCD leaders, presenters and staff, to help further develop their leadership skills.
