Rural schools face real challenges: teacher retention, leadership turnover, and the need to empower students who are ready to lead. The Leader-Ready Institute is designed specifically for small districts to address these needs head-on.
This two-day, in-person institute brings together two staff members and three students from your district to participate in parallel leadership development tracks—aligned in purpose, rich in experience, and focused on long-term results.

Participants engage in an immersive leadership experience focused on:
DISC Communication Styles
Relational Intelligence
Adaptive Leadership
Team Culture and Collaboration
FastTrack tools for continued application
-
Student leaders participate in hands-on, challenge-based activities that build:
Personal influence

Initiative and problem-solving
Teamwork with peers from neighboring districts

A leadership cohort that returns to your district ready to strengthen your culture and lead with clarity.
