About the Academy
-
The Leadership Academy gives students an opportunity to learn, at a young age, that they have the potential in them to be an outstanding leader at school and in their community. “Every child can be a leader” is the motto that drives instruction, which integrates academic, leadership, and life skills and creates a sense of student empowerment.
Through the “Leader in Me” model, students will learn about the importance of responsibility, integrity, vision, and teamwork/collaboration, which are qualities found in an effective leader. Additionally, students will learn how to handle challenges that elementary-age children face.
Special elective courses available to students include Leadership and Spanish.
