New Braunfels ISD says FranklinCovey Education awarded it a $377,000 grant to implement Leader in Me across all district elementary and middle school campuses. The district announced the award Oct. 6 in its Leader in Me notice.
Students at every NBISD elementary and middle school are included in the district's announced rollout. NBISD says the grant will support professional development for staff, learning materials and other resources to launch and sustain the program. Its announcement describes Leader in Me as a framework for student leadership and life skills; those aims are not measured outcomes of this award.
Families can read the district's grant announcement for the stated campus coverage and intended uses. The next useful update will be a campus implementation schedule and a breakdown of what the award provides.
