In order to set a good example for students around you, you’d have to demonstrate the type of character that exemplifies compassion, curiosity, awareness and follow-through. I mention these traits because students who are often selected as leaders within the school demonstrate these characteristics. Compassion is a way students connect to other human beings and patiently understand the differences between people while also respecting those differences in a way that does not dehumanize others. Curiosity is a wonderful characteristic that shows educators how students engage with their learning. Curiosity also means students are willing and open to always learning more. Awareness is indicative of social understanding. Students who demonstrate awareness of differences, cultures and the diversity of human beings are more inclined to work with any other student or adult in the school. I think follow-through shows maturity. When selecting student leaders, I want to work with students who can complete tasks or at least communicate with others in a way that completion of tasks and responsibilities is a priority. Students should learn how to identify needs and create solutions to meet those needs, whatever they might be.
