Northwest School Division, under the tutelage of Mr. Don Wheler, has a legendary leadership program for its senior students. Kids must apply and only a small percentage of students are accepted. Marshall School for a number of reasons has never had one of our graduates accepted to the program. The CSL work the grade7s at Marshall are doing has come to the attention of the esteemed Mr. Wheler. The Academy will meet this week at our school and Don has invited Marshall's grade Marshall's 7s to participate. As you might expect anticipation is high in our class. The kids have learned that if you work hard at doing good and doing well, good things generally follow. I asked the kids to write a short piece describing CSL to the Leadership Academy. I think you can see their evolving understanding, even if sometimes we are reminded that they are only 12 years-old.
