Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 565

Lead like a Rockstar is just getting going, but has had a positive impact so far.  We have completed a few walls, bathroom mirrors and bathroom doors with positive and leadership inspiring quotes.  The students have loved it and actually connected it to our CCPS initative Connect for Success which based on the Leader in Me.   I say that it is just getting started as we would like to have the student council each year choose  new spaces or doors to post positive leadership sayings on rather than do it all in one year by one group of students.  This way more cohorts of students will feel invested in MDE and be able to see the positive impact they left on MDE when they were here.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

To inspire leadership and positive self image in students while creating a rocking school environment.  

 

What will be done with my students

With the help of student counsel, we will be putting positive leadership quotes and phrases on bathroom doors, mirrors, and common areas. Students will help contribute idea and designs for the project so that they feel a sense of pride and ownership in their school.  

 

Benefits to my students

Students will feel pride in their work when they see quotes they helped chose for the school. They will also inspire others and help create a culture of kindness.  

 

Budget Narrative

I plan to purchase a circuit machine for the school which then can be used by the teachers after the project is complete. To cut such a large project we will need several rolls of vinyl and replacement blades for the machine.
