Leader in Me
Middle School
7 Habits
Be Proactive – You choose your actions, attitude, and mood
Begin With the End in Mind – A goal without a plan is just a wish
Put First Things, First – You’re in charge, you’re the creator
Think Win-Win – Less me, more WE
Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood – We don’t learn from talking, we learn from listening
Synergize – 1 + 1 = 3
Sharpen the Saw – Life is balance: body, brain, heart, and soul
Teachers completed 7 Habits training and began teaching the common language of the habits to students in every grade level beginning with the 2018-2019 school year. Over time, we have created leadership opportunities for students such as Middle School Bus Ambassadors, Shutterbug Club, and the Student Lighthouse Team. Our students also have many classroom leadership roles and opportunities.
The Student Lighthouse Team is a lead team of 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students with goals of building a leadership culture among students, helping students to further develop the 7 Habits, and encouraging student voice and using it for school decision-making.
