Principal's Message

Dear Mustang Families-

Parents of 8th graders:

Is your 8th grader interested in leadership experiences in high school? 

Then the Leadership class at SCHS may be for them!

Leadership is an elective class (this is NOT a club) that focuses on understanding leadership, assessment of leadership styles, planning and organizing skills, relationship building and problem solving.  Leadership works with administration, staff and students to create events and activities to better the school atmosphere!  To be considered for the class an application and interview is required.  Completion of this process does not guarantee admittance into the class, but it necessary to be considered. 

The application process includes:

1. Completion of interest form (we will be coming to the middle school to give more information)

2. Completion of Google Application

3. 2 Teacher Recommendations--list the teacher names in the application and a form will be sent to the teachers

4. Interview

Applications are available on their team (Green, Pink, or Tie Dye) Schoology Course and will be open through January 13th.
