Status:
Open Agenda
Approve the agreement between I AM A Leader Foundation and The School Board of Broward County, Florida (as operator of Eagle Point Elementary School).
Eagle Point Elementary will be the first school in Broward County to implement The Leader in Me (TLIM) five-year transformation program with the sponsorship from FranklinCovey and the work from the Lighthouse Team consultants. The Leader in Me is a whole-school leadership transformation model based on the book "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People."The Leader in Me produces transformational results such as higher academic achievement, fewer discipline problems, and increased engagement among teachers and parents. It equips students with the self-confidence and skills they need to thrive in the 21st-Century economy. FranklinCovey will sponsor the services and materials to include training staff, student materials, teacher/staff guides, classroom materials, and consultation with the Lighthouse Team. This program will empower students to take responsibility for their own learning and progress through the implementation of data binders and student led conferences. Teaching students to have ownership for their learning will serve them well all throughout life. More importantly, it will teach students the value of structure, ownership, and responsibility giving them a strong foundation upon which they can build to be college and career ready.
The Lighthouse team sponsored by FranklinCovey will lead and continually improve the implementation of The Leader in Me program (TLIM). School accountability reports will be submitted from the school principal and the Lighthouse Team describing the schools? successes, challenges, and key learning experiences including data collected from a school assessment of their progress resulting from implementing the TLIM program. Data from reading and math test scores, student discipline and attendance referrals as well as staff and parent satisfaction data will be collected to track and monitor impact of the program in the school.
This project is consistent with District Strategic Plan Goal 1 High Quality Instruction within the objective to increase college and career readiness by providing students with proactive intervention and remediation, integration of 21st century skills and quality education choice. It also addresses Goal 2 Continuous Improvement within the objective to monitor leading indicators associated with the objectives under high quality instruction (attendance, behavior, grades, etc.).
This agreement has been approved as to form and legal content by the Office of the General Counsel. This will be executed after School Board approval.
The positive financial impact is $53,487 from Franklin Covey and Eagle Point PTA Foundation. There is no additional financial impact to the District.
