Rocket Habit of the Month: Habit 1 – Be Proactive! 🚀
Leadership begins long before the classroom — it starts at home. Families can help children take responsibility and make thoughtful choices by using the “Pause, Think, Choose” method. Encourage your child to stop, reflect, and make the best choice for any situation. Together, we’re building strong proactive habits that last a lifetime!

🚀 Starting tomorrow, we’re launching a brand-new series: Rocket Habit of the Month! 🌟

Each month, we’ll spotlight one of the 7 Habits from the Leader in Me framework — powerful principles that help students build leadership, responsibility, and strong character. These habits connect directly to our Portrait of a Rocket work, guiding learners to lead themselves, collaborate with others, and grow continuously — in school and beyond.

Stay tuned as we explore each habit and highlight the many ways our Rockets put them into action every day! 🚀💙

The Portrait of a Rocket continues to guide our work at Rockcastle County Schools, showing how every student can learn, lead, and soar. Rooted in The Leader in Me framework and aligned with Kentucky’s Portrait of a Learner, it reflects the qualities we aim to build in all Rockets—resilience, responsibility, communication, collaboration, innovation, and critical thinking. 🚀

This is the heart of our vision: guiding Rocket Learners to Rocket Leaders. 🌟
