• Leadership (K-5)

    The truth is that good leadership requires more than natural ability. With a program emphasis on 21st century leadership and character development, students at the leadership magnet learn to communicate effectively, collaborate, make ethical decisions and motivate others. They show initiative and participate in service learning. See their mention in Stephen Covey's book The Leader in Me.
