Liberty Middle School hosts regular leadership celebrations to highlight the ways students demonstrate leadership and live out the Leader in Me seven habits:

Leader of the Month is generally awarded to two students per grade level per month. Recipients consistently demonstrate the seven habits, work hard and be persistent to the best of their ability,  be proactive and display initiative, honesty, respect, responsibility, compassion and optimism, set a positive example for their peers, maintain good attendance, and have no referrals. At the end of the year, Leaders of the Month are invited to a special dinner celebrating their leadership.

Good News Notes can be given to any student, at any time, and there is no limit to how many a student can receive. Good News Notes are a way to recognize both big and small acts of leadership—whether it’s holding the door, helping a classmate, or going above and beyond in class.
