After School Enrichment
Extended Day
ABE is a Leader in Me Lighthouse School!
Atlantic Beach Elementary received certification in the 2019-2020 school year as a Leader in Me Lighthouse School. The leader in Me program helps our school create well-rounded students by developing the whole person and preparing students to become life-ready leaders. These leadership initiatives influence the behavior of staff, student leaders, and families.
The Lighthouse School Designation is earned by schools that demonstrate the following:
The principal, school administration and staff engage in ongoing learning and develop as leaders, while championing leadership for the school.
Leadership principles are effectively taught to all students through direct lessons, integrated approaches, and staff modeling. Students are able to think critically about and apply leadership principles.
Families and the school partner together in learning about The 7 Habits® and leadership principles through effective communication and mutual respect.
The school community is able to see leadership in the physical environment, hear leadership through a common language, and feel leadership through a culture of caring, relationships, and affirmation.
Leadership is shared with students through a variety of leadership roles and student voice leads to innovations within the school.
Schoolwide, classroom, family, and community leadership events provide authentic environments to celebrate leadership, build culture, and allow students to practice leadership skills.
The school utilizes the 4DX® process to identify and track progress toward Wildly Important Goals® (WIGs) for the school, classroom, and staff.
Students lead their own learning with the skills to assess their needs, set appropriate goals, and carry out action plans. They track progress toward goals in Leadership Notebooks and share these notebooks with adults in student-led conferences.
Teacher planning and reflection, trusting relationships, and student-led learning combine to create environments for highly engaged learning.
