Leader in Me at BCR
Bear Creek is a Leader in Me school. We will focus on developing leadership in all of our students. As we grow as a school, we will be adding new and exciting leadership opportunities for students, parents and our community. Stay tuned as we grow our Cubs to be lifelong leaders! In partnership with Leader in Me, students will have the opportunity to be rewarded with “Cub Bucks”. Students can spend those “Cub Bucks” in our school wide PBIS store. Positive referrals will also be written and celebrated on the news!
The Leader in Me is a school model that focuses on empowering students with leadership and life skills they need to
thrive in the 21st century. This model helps build the whole child, and allows students to find their individual genius.
Through staff professional development, teachers will begin to learn about the core of Leader in Me, which is the 7 Habits
of Highly Effective Kids developed by Sean Covey. These 7 Habits will teach students how to interact with others, take
responsibility, and make choices that will positively impact their future. Staff will teach leadership to every student, create
a culture of student empowerment, and align systems to drive results in academics. The Leader in Me model will also
provide ample opportunities for students, staff, and parents to work together and ensure the school and community are
supporting life-long learners.
