Leader in Me

The Leader In Me Program (LIM) is used to teach leadership skills to students, create a culture of student leaders, and empower students to lead their own learning.  We use the eight habits as guides for decision-making and behavior.  The five paradigms drive the Leader In Me process and inform our schoolwide and classroom practices.  The four disciplines help teachers and students achieve their goals.
