Future Leaders Journal
A Living Portfolio of Growth from Childhood to Adulthood
From Poolesville Self Defense — Powered by the A-Game Maturity Framework™
Build More Than a Student — Build a Leader
Poolesville High School is the #1 public high school in Maryland and ranks in the Top 1% of schools nationwide (U.S. News & World Report). Families move here for education — but success takes more than grades.
It takes character. Confidence. Consistency. Leadership.
That’s why we created the Future Leaders Journal — a year-round tool that helps students build strong habits and document their growth from elementary through high school.
What Is the Future Leaders Journal?
The journal is a living portfolio — a personal leadership tracker that captures a student’s journey, habits, milestones, and meaningful reflections from childhood to adulthood.
Students log accomplishments at school, at home, in the community, and on the mat — tracking their growth across every area of life.
Our 4 Core Values:
Work Hard — Stay focused, even when it’s difficult
Try Your Best — Bounce back, learn, and keep going
Have Fun — Find joy in growth and service
Give Back — Make an impact beyond yourself
Powered by the A-Game Maturity Framework™
