Changing Culture

WEB helps change school culture. Hundreds of schools have watched as their student bodies have become more connected, more spirited and kinder to each other. Because of the diversity of the leaders, WEB gives students who would otherwise not socialize with each other a common purpose and a common goal, thus diminishing antagonism that might exist between these groups. WEB Leaders are positive, natural leaders from a broad social cross-section so student leadership is shared by a variety of groups on your campus and the climate reflects that.

Positive 6th/7th graders change school culture. Can you imagine 6th/7th graders winning spirit competitions? 6th/7th graders getting more involved in extra-curricular events and activities? 6th/7th graders taking their academics seriously and asking for help? Connected 6th/7th graders who feel welcomed and wanted also feel safe and therefore behave differently; they are more respectful, less antagonistic, more involved and care more about themselves and the school community in general. Campus climates change because the 6th/7th graders change.

But change does not happen overnight. While no program can change the demographics or physical environment of a school, what WEB can do and has done for over a thousand schools is, year after year, create an empowered group of students who have pride in their school and believe that this year could be the best year yet. That is the power of WEB.
