Independent Schools Association of the Central States Breakout Session

Student councils, peer leadership, orientations, and other student leadership programs are essential components of any school. To be effective and credible requires collaboration between educators and students that results in healthy and sometimes complex tension. Hear how a school’s informal traditions teach powerful lessons about the school culture that can run counter to the goals of a school’s leadership programs. Training for student leaders makes or breaks a program. Leave with a blueprint to increase effectiveness and improve school culture and climate. This session is for middle and upper school.
