🌟 Learning from the Best! 🌟
Our Dreaming Summit Elementary teachers hit the road yesterday to visit three amazing Leader in Me schools in our district - Barbara Robey, Rancho, and Verrado Heritage!
It was incredible to see firsthand all the innovative ways these schools are building student leadership and empowering their young leaders. From student-led lighthouse teams to leadership notebooks, our teachers came back inspired and ready to bring these ideas to life as we begin our own Leader in Me journey!
Thank you to all three schools for opening your doors and sharing your wisdom with us. The collaboration and support within our district is truly something special!
