Leadership development at Cathedral School for Boys is not typically graded in the same way as academic subjects. While leadership skills are reflected in classroom behavior, participation, and advisory conversations, they are not assigned numeric or letter grades. Instead, leadership growth supports learning and social-emotional development and may be observed through holistic feedback, teacher observations, and ongoing conversations rather than formal assessments.
