Clearview Elementary’s Student Leadership Program held team meetings on Friday, Nov. 22.
The goal is to incorporate the Student Council and the Student Leadership teams together to make one organization, and involve every student at Clearview.
Students are divided and placed into different teams within the Student Leadership Program.
“This is an entire school effort,” said Clearview Elementary Counselor Cheryl Spratt. “By involving all of the students and giving them a voice will help them feel more connected to the school. They will be able to take ownership in improving the school in different ways and let kids know they have a voice, and we want to hear it. It will also assist in creating leaders who are excellent role models, who encourage others to do the same.”
The Clearview students had the opportunity to pick the team they wanted to be on. In some cases, they may have gotten their second or third choice, but they still were given one of their choices.
