The session will outline how this high school has embedded a leadership, ethics and development curriculum (LEAD) for all students 9th through 12th during the school day. This pedagogical approach includes a strong emphasis on leadership for all incoming 9th graders, health and wellness in 10th, and exploration of self and others through service and preparation for exploration of interests. Students have the opportunity to lead an Exploration course, with teacher support embedded in the day. Students, and adults who work with them, will present on each of these components of the program, and highlight the successes and lessons learned from the past five years of development.
