*Leadership notebooks are an important part of our students' learning. Every child, kindergarten through fifth grade, has a leadership notebook. These contain tools and data used by students to set and help them achieve academic and personal goals.

*They include things such as grades, letters from the teacher, mission statements, behavior logs, goal sheets, and calendars. Each grade level's leadership notebook is different according to their students' needs.

Leadership Notebooks give kids a chance to take ownership of their learning. Kids track their grades, behavior, and lots of other things. This helps teach kids how to plan to reach goals and improve in all kids of ways.

* In the fall, we have an informational night for parents about the Leader in Me program.

*We prepare parents for student-led conferences during this time.

*Some teachers choose to do sign ups for conferences on this night, to give parents who attend first preference.

*Additionally, a letter is sent home to all parents about student-led conferences.

*We have experienced positive feedback from parents, teachers, and students, especially after conferences have concluded.*Student- Led
