TEACHER SPONSORED CLUBS BELOW
Details about joining these will come home at various time throughout the year. Dates/times may change from what is listed below.
Peer Leaders
Peer Leaders are 5th grade students chosen to be role models amongst Due West Elementary. The purpose is to further develop their leadership skills in order to assist their peers when navigating conflicts. Peer leaders are also utilized to serve as a “host” for guests that come to our school, and help coordinate and collect items for our holiday food and toiletry drives. As a peer leader students will learn about important leadership qualities, problem solving skills amongst peers, how to be an example in the school, and the importance of giving back to the community.
