Leader in Me
Intermediate Magnet
Program
The Leader in Me is an innovative, school-wide model that
enables educators to unleash each child's full potential by
developing leaders with 21st century skills. Within the next
two years, Eastern Elementary faculty and staff will develop
a new mission statement for the school as well as
classroom mission statements. Teachers will also create
their own professional mission statement. In order to apply
the Leader in Me philosophy, students will be given the
opportunity to apply for classroom and school level jobs and
also serve in various leadership roles throughout our school
and community. In the spring of 2016, four teachers from
Eastern will be trained on how to teach the 7 Habits to other
teachers. This will enable Eastern to sustain the 7 Habits
focus as new staff are hired in the future.
As part of our district's expansion of the magnet concept,
our 21st Century After School Program will offer enrichment
opportunities for an identifed population of "Magnet"
students. Our program will focus around the four pillars
outlined in our district program which include Leadership,
Academics, Community Involvement and The Arts.
