Student Leadership

Expectations:

1. Role Model Behavior

House leaders must consistently live the values of the house (e.g. respect, responsibility, kindness). Younger students should see them making good choices, handling mistakes gracefully, and showing positive attitudes.

2. Leadership & Initiative

They should step forward without being told: propose ideas, lead during house meetings, help organize events, troubleshoot issues, and mobilize their peers. Being proactive is key. 

3. Communication & Collaboration

They need to communicate clearly — to their house members, teachers, and staff — and collaborate with others (peer leaders, staff) to plan and carry out house activities. Also, listen to classmates’ ideas and concerns. 

4. Responsibility & Reliability

When they commit to a duty (running a meeting, organizing a game, collecting points), people can count on them to follow through. That includes being punctual, prepared, and consistent. 

5. Encouragement & Inclusion

They should actively include others, especially students who may feel less confident or are new, and encourage participation, recognizing effort and kindness. They help build a positive house culture (not just focus on competition).


Application Process:

Each school and house has their own process to elect their house leaders.

House Leaders are students and staff who help build school culture by welcoming new members, leading cheers, organizing activities, mentoring younger students, and modeling the values of their house. Leadership opportunities are available throughout the year so students can develop confidence, responsibility, and service.

The House System creates a strong sense of belonging. Instead of being known only by a grade level or classroom, every student becomes part of a school family that celebrates character, leadership, kindness, and teamwork. Houses encourage students to support one another while participating in friendly competitions, service projects, and school traditions.  

All six houses participate in the same school-wide events, competitions, and celebrations. Each house has its own unique identity, colors, symbols, cheers, and traditions, but every house shares the same goal—building leaders who make a positive impact on others.

Because every house includes students from multiple grade levels, older students naturally encourage and mentor younger students. They welcome new members, celebrate successes, lead activities, and model kindness, leadership, and positive behavior, helping every student feel connected and supported.

Absolutely! Students proudly wear their house shirts during House Days, spirit events, competitions, and celebrations throughout the school year. Wearing house colors builds school pride, strengthens friendships, and reminds students that they are part of something bigger than themselves.
