Leadership Abilene Visits Ortiz

We had some visitors at Ortiz Elementary.... the nice folks from Leadership Abilene.  Leadership Abilene is was organized by the Chamber of Commerce and designed to give local citizens interested in the future of Abilene a chance to see different aspects of our community.  They visit various locations in Abilene and today they came to our school.






















Our Jr. Lighthouse Team acted as tour guides to groups of  3-5 adults.  Our kiddos planned out a tour schedule and a timeline for the schedule, and decided what they wanted to say at each stop on the tour.







At first, we were a little concerned that the Jr. Lighthouse kids would have a difficult time speaking in front of groups of adults, but we shouldn't have worried.... they did GREAT!











They answered questions and talked at length about our school and The Leader in Me program.




I know I've said it before, but WE ARE SO PROUD OF OUR JR. LIGHTHOUSE TEAM!!
