October Schoolwide Learner Outcome: Empathetic Citizen
iLEAD is excited to continue our Schoolwide Learner Outcomes series. Our October focus is Empathetic Citizen: “I seek to understand and appreciate what others are thinking, feeling, or experiencing.” This article has several tips to help you cultivate empathy in your child: “Cultivating Empathetic Citizens: Nurturing Compassion and Understanding in Your Child.”
What are Schoolwide Learner Outcomes?
At iLEAD, we believe that education should extend beyond traditional academic knowledge. Our purposeful approach revolves around the iLEAD Schoolwide Learner Outcomes, a collective vision that encapsulates our aspirations for each individual’s education.
The iLEAD Schoolwide Learner Outcomes serve as our compass, guiding us in shaping each child’s educational journey.
In the course of a child’s career with iLEAD Schools, our learners will engage with a relevant and rigorous curriculum that will prepare them for success personally and professionally.
The following are the expected Schoolwide Learner Outcomes that our learners develop:
iLEAD by being a/an…
Lifelong Learner
I am a self-directed learner, focused on personal growth and development.
Empathetic Citizen
I seek to understand and appreciate what others are thinking, feeling, or experiencing.
Authentic Individual
I am true to myself, my personality, values, beliefs, and principles.
Design Thinker
I am a creative, imaginative individual who explores original ideas, takes risks, and develops innovative solutions that I share with others.

iLEAD AV Studio School-Wide Presentation of Learning: October 9
At iLEAD Antelope Valley Studio, all learners (TK-8) are currently immersed in our Soaring Aeronautics Project!
This school-wide effort introduces learners to the engineering design process and the principles of aerodynamics. The curriculum is rich, weaving in the history of flight, avian anatomy, experimental gliders, and meteorology to give meaning to hands-on research and writing.
Here are some highlights from the project so far:
- September 30: Learners and families interacted with a full-scale glider on campus, hearing firsthand from pilots about flight controls.
- Saturday, October 4: Our 8th-grade learners took their knowledge to the sky with the opportunity to fly a real glider.
Mark your calendar! The project culminates in our school-wide Presentation of Learning Day this Thursday, October 9. Get ready to be amazed as our learners share their extensive knowledge of aeronautics with the whole community!
Special thanks to iLEAD Student Aerospace Projects for their guidance with this exciting project!
