Leader in Me at CES
Corkscrew Elementary is a Leader in Me Lighthouse School!
We at Corkscrew Elementary School are proud to be in our first year as a Leader in Me School. Leader in Me is a whole-school improvement process based on the idea that everyone can be a leader. This evidence-based approach empowers students with the leadership and life-skills they need to thrive in the 21st century.
The Leader in Me is a school model that focuses on empowering students with leadership and life skills they need to
thrive in the 21st century. This model helps build the whole child, and allows students to find their individual genius.
Through staff professional development, teachers will begin to learn about the core of Leader in Me, which is the 7 Habits
of Highly Effective Kids developed by Sean Covey. These 7 Habits will teach students how to interact with others, take
responsibility, and make choices that will positively impact their future. Staff will teach leadership to every student, create
a culture of student empowerment, and align systems to drive results in academics. The Leader in Me model will also
provide ample opportunities for students, staff, and parents to work together and ensure the school and community are
supporting life-long learners.
