The Starkville Oktibbeha Consolidated School District is embracing “The Leader in Me” philosophy to help our students discover their individual greatness as student leaders.
We invite parents to join us on this leadership journey as your child’s first and best teacher.
The District has launched Parent University, a series of lunch and learn sessions with parents, to provide information about the universal, timeless principles found in The Leader in Me process, as well as activities you can put into practice at home to teach your student to become a leader.
We encourage parents to look for opportunities to engage your child and ask questions about what he/she is learning. You can find a complete list of the seven healthy habits plus ideas to use at home to involve the whole family in the parents section at www.TheLeaderInMe.org.
