On the evening of Thursday, March 26th, students from the Sixth Grade Center, Strayer Middle School and the Quakertown Community High School were honored for exemplifying the skills of a Self-Directed Leader, part of the QCSD’s “Portrait of a Graduate.” The “Portrait” is a collective vision crafted by educational stakeholders, outlining the skills, attributes, and knowledge QCSD students should possess by the time they graduate. Throughout the year, students are recognized each month who demonstrate leadership in a key skill outlined in our “Portrait”:
Effective Communicators
Problem Solvers
Relationship Builders
Critical Thinkers
Self-Directed Leaders
This month, students in our middle schools and high schools were recognized for being “Self-Directed Leaders.”
What is a Self-Directed Leader?
Self-directed leaders are proactive, goal-oriented individuals who take initiative, demonstrate accountability, manage time efficiently, and continuously seek personal and professional growth while inspiring and collaborating with others to achieve shared goals.
Congratulations to our students for being such fantastic leaders and role-models for their classmates!
