Welcome to TEAM Leadership

The key rule:
Say what you mean, mean what you say, do what you say you are going to do.

What Do We Do here?
The focus of this course is to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary for effective communication, leadership, and service to others in the school and community. It recognizes that the students must understand the concept of leadership and must be able to lead themselves before they can be effective leaders for others. The program is student driven. Students learn from one another. They are given the opportunity and encouraged to develop their own leadership skills and to take risks and grow in positive, productive ways.
