While Jordan was getting off his afternoon bus, a small child with autism ran out of the reach of his mother into the street. Without hesitation, Jordan got to the child and restrained them until the driver was able to get off the bus and help get them off the street safely.
Jordan's actions were the perfect demonstration of Leader in Me Habit No. 1 ā Be Proactive ā which includes being responsible, having a positive attitude, and doing the right thing, even if and when no one is watching. Jordan has been a leader in following BHLās R.O.A.R. expectations for students: Respectful, Open-Minded, Accountable, and Responsible.
Great job, Jordan!
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Our school is implementing a whole-school transformational process called the Leader in Me, which teaches 21st-century leadership and life skills to students and creates a culture of student empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader.
Our school will be conducting surveys to learn more about key areas of strength and areas of needed growth in our school. In order for us to have a holistic picture of what is going on in our school, we are asking all full-time staff members, parents/guardians, and students in Grade 4 and up to participate.
Parent Participation
If you decide to participate, you will be asked to complete a survey (without sharing your name or other identifying information) that will be available through the weblink below. The survey is completely voluntary, but we do hope to get feedback from one member of every household.
The parent/guardian survey takes about 12 minutes to complete and will ask questions about your child and about his or her experience in our school. If you have more than one child attending the school, you will be asked to think about the oldest child's experiences as you answer questions related to his or her growth.
Please take this survey: https://www.leaderinme.com/s/burney-harris-lyons-middle-school/families
Please complete the survey by October 16, 2025.
