Executive Summary
The Director of Federal Programs, Magen Schlechter, on behalf of the Superintendent of Schools, hereby requests the Board review Franklin Covey’s The Leader in Me program implementation protocols, available program supports and the coordinated investment summary consideration for a three-year investment commitment. Currently Challenger K-8 School, Dolores S. Parrott Middle School, Eastside Elementary School, Explorer K-8 School, Hernando High School, and Moton Elementary School have expressed interest in starting this whole-school transformation model. The Leader in Me (TLIM) is built around Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. The program focuses on developing leadership and personal growth for students, embedding these principles into school culture, curriculum, and practices. TLIM aims to help students build leadership skills that make them proactive, responsible, and effective. By promoting self-awareness, goal setting, and collaboration, the program fosters a positive environment where students take ownership of their learning and leadership development. In short, TLIM is a school-wide program designed to nurture leadership skills, teamwork, and personal growth in students.
The total amount over a three-year period will not exceed $650,000.00. This dollar amount includes district membership and access to the programs online platform, student membership fees, professional learning and consultation fees, curriculum guides and resources, and registration costs for the annual TLIM Symposium. The district is set to receive a $293,700.00 in sponsor funding.

If expenditure is not currently budgeted, this will serve as the budget amendment when Board approved. If the agenda item includes the purchase of goods or services, the funds requested are an anticipated amount and may fluctuate depending on such factors as current market conditions, product availability, additional funding sources, and the needs of the District. Should the actual cost exceed the anticipated amount, the Board approves the additional cost, after review by the superintendent, but not in excess of the funds available in the site’s approved annual budget.
