Angela Clark-Louque, a professor of educational leadership and technology in the James R. Watson and Judy Rodriguez Watson College of Education at Cal State San Bernardino, will be celebrated as a Leading While Female Icon at the Leading While Female Conference to be held in San Diego April 21-22.
The two-day conference features female school leaders who will offer conversations and stories designed to help both female and male educational leaders confront and close the gender-equity gap by overcoming barriers and creating support factors for emerging leaders. The conference features a keynote address by Candy Singh, a veteran educator with a 33-year career in K-12 and higher education. Singh currently serves as the Professor of Leadership/Superintendent in Residence in the LaFetra College of Education at the University of La Verne.
Clark-Louque, who joined CSUSB in 2000, had served as department chair of Educational Leadership and Technology. Her focus has been on urban educational leadership, developing organizational and community engagement capacity, and building a culture of equity. Prior to that, she served as a CalWorks and EOPS counselor and mathematics faculty at the community college level, as an administrator, and mathematics, social sciences, and band instructor at the high school level.
Clark-Louque earned her doctorate in educational leadership from Pepperdine University, a master of arts in counseling from Loyola Marymount University and a bachelor of arts in psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles.
