An Onslow County school is now one of four schools in North Carolina to be awarded a special designation for implementing a leadership model in the school.
The Leader in Me Lighthouse School title was awarded this week by Franklin Covey to Silverdale Elementary School, according to an Onslow County Schools news release. Silverdale is now one of four schools in North Carolina and one of 126 nationwide to be recognized with the Lighthouse designation.
The Leader in Me model is a process designed to enhance students’ life skills and workforce readiness. The principles and practices of Steven Covey’s book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People are embedded in the instructional practices and curriculum of the school.
The school recently held its second annual Leadership Day to allow the community to see the things happening at the school.
