WHAT IS WEB? WEB is a program that welcomes the 6th grade class on the first day of school as well as continues to support them throughout their first year of middle school. WEB Leaders have been identified as students at school who are kind, responsible, positive role models, possess leadership qualities, and most importantly, have a desire to give back to their school community. 

 

WHAT DOES IT MEAN? Being a WEB Leader is an important responsibility. In order to build the most effective program possible, WEB has a series of mandatory dates that all WEB Leaders must attend in order to be a WEB Leader. 

 

Please note that students do NOT need to sign up for the WEB Elective class in order to be a WEB Leader!

 

WHAT WILL THEY DO? It all starts with a Play Day this spring to start bringing the Leaders together and help them understand the mission of WEB, then a couple training days just before school opens up, then orientation, and then reconnecting throughout the school year so the 6th graders know that someone has their back.  WEB leaders will explore leadership skills including public speaking and group collaboration and take a central role in creating and running WEB events exclusive to 8th grade WEB leaders and MBMS 6th graders.

 

How Do I Become a WEB Leader? Interest Forms can be found HERE. Hard copies can be found in the Main Office, Room 208 (Mr. Beaudin) or Room120 (Mrs. Galbraith).
