The leaders of tomorrow are the children of today. Grand Prairie ISD offers instructional settings that provide experiences that allow our students the opportunity to develop and practice quality leadership skills such as respect, responsibility for themselves and others, teamwork, collaboration, and a solution-centered approach to problems. We nurture our young leaders to ensure that they are knowledgeable about and have the skills to realize the contributions that they can make to the global community.

 

The Leadership strand begins with our youngest learners at Marshall Leadership Academy and at the Global Leadership Academy at Barbara Bush Elementary School.

 

Students then have the opportunity to expand their leadership experiences in middle school in Bill Arnold Middle School or in our 6-12 school, Grand Prairie Collegiate Institute.

In high school, students have the opportunity to expand upon their early learning by participating in student government at traditional campuses or Programs of Choice.
