Student leadership opportunities to expand in Palliser Schools
COALHURST – Imagine learning to surf only to find out you have no access to the ocean.
That’s a scenario staff at two Palliser Regional Schools here are working to eliminate in the name of student leadership.
They recently brainstormed ways to carry the philosophy – and benefits – of the Leader in Me program over from Coalhurst Elementary School to Coalhurst High School. They’re also hoping the community will catch that wave with them.
The Leader in Me program is based on the belief that every child has the ability to be a leader and make a positive difference. Leadership development is integrated into existing programs, curriculum and traditions.
