Congratulations to our November Growing Leaders of the Month, nominated by staff! This month Social And Emotional Lessons were focused on personal values. This was through the lesson "A Compass or a GPS." A GPS is only helpful if you are on paved roads. If you are entering new areas, you need a compass that shows you true north. Similarly, we need values that provide direction when we enter new territory. The ability to accurately recognize one’s emotions and thoughts and their influence on behavior. This includes accurately assessing one’s strengths and limitations and possessing a well-grounded sense of confidence and optimism. Here's what staff had to say about our Growing Leaders: Kaylen Williams was nominated by staff for his ability to follow his true north. We enjoy watching Kaylen be so confident in his values. Jayceen Caspersen was nominated by staff for her ability to be true to what she believes in. It does not matter what everyone else is doing, Jayceen takes ownership of her own drive and happiness. Congratulations to all of our CLMS & MHS Growing Leaders! #mhs #metlakatlahighschool #metlakatla #alaska #education #growingleaders
