Leadership - Middle School

   Year 9 Team Leaders  by KingsWay School

Leadership is encouraged in Middle School, and opportunities are given to students to develop their leadership skills through conferences and mentoring. Students can serve on leadership councils, and every class has two student leaders who change each semester. Class devotions are also often led by students, and everyone is encouraged to be a servant leader by using their influence for the good of the community. Middle School places importance on character development and growth as a disciple of Christ.

Class Leaders Year 7-9

Two leaders from every form class are selected each semester. The Class Leaders initiative provides a platform where students have a voice and contribute to school life.
