LEADERSHIP

This year course is open to 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students who want to serve the school community while developing their own leadership skills. Leadership skills are both learned in the classroom and refined through practice. Therefore, this course will include two parts: classroom lessons and school projects. Leadership skills such as goal setting, time management, decision making, meeting procedures, communication, organization, public speaking and interpersonal relations will be developed through instructional activities and assessments. Students will put these skills into practice through direct planning and implementation of school projects. Students will reflect on their skill development to identify growth and areas for improvement.
