LEXINGTON, Ky. — Three principals from Fayette County Public Schools have completed the Kentucky Chamber Foundation’s 2026 Leadership Institute for School Principals, joining a class of 44 educators representing 23 counties across the state.
Alexander Butler of Russell Cave Elementary, Felicia Lindsay of the Audrey Grevious Center and Family Care Center, and Holly Vogler of Stonewall Elementary completed the year-long executive leadership development program, which the Fayette County Public Schools announced has trained the trio. The 2026 graduating class represents nearly 25,000 students statewide.
The Kentucky Chamber Foundation, in partnership with the Truist Leadership Institute, offers the program at no cost to principals. The program is funded through a $12,500 in-kind donation per principal from Truist and $5,500 in matching donations from Kentucky’s business community.
Since its launch 14 years ago, the institute has trained more than 641 principals from 112 Kentucky counties, impacting more than 3 million students. The program focuses on self-awareness, change management, and building engaged, high-performing school cultures, with graduates receiving personalized growth plans and practical leadership tools.
Russell Cave Elementary, located in a fringe rural area of Lexington, serves pre-kindergarten through fifth-grade students and has faced academic challenges, with a diverse student population of 268 students. Stonewall Elementary, in South Lexington, has performed above the state average in reading and math proficiency, with 673 students in grades pre-K-5. Both schools are part of Kentucky’s second-largest school district.
Each year, the Leadership Institute accepts applications for a new class of principals, with participants selected by a Board of Managers composed of Kentucky business and education leaders. The program has become increasingly important as state legislators have moved to expand principal leadership training, with recent legislation establishing a structured, statewide leadership development system for school principals that builds on the Chamber Foundation’s model.
