While this does not indicate any endorsement by the District, we wanted to pass this opportunity on to any interested school.

They understand how important it is to bring meaningful change to your school without overwhelming your team. They also understand what time of year you are hearing about this opportunity. That’s why they want to emphasize one of the most valuable aspects of the Leader in Me process: it's fully adaptable to your school’s unique pace and priorities.
Whether you're looking to take small, strategic steps or you're ready to build momentum quickly, Leader in Me is designed to meet you where you are. You can begin with what feels manageable and build from there. Many schools appreciate that they can focus on creating impact while maintaining a sustainable rhythm for their staff.
Schools that implement Leader in Me report up to a 50% reduction in discipline referrals and consistent gains in academic proficiency. Teachers and parents describe a noticeable shift in school culture—where students take ownership, staff feel more united, and leadership becomes part of everyday learning. One principal shared, “For the first time, we have a common language and vision for student success that’s truly moving us forward together.”
