MISD Servant Leader Award

The Midlothian Independent School District Board of Trustees, in 2008, created the Servant Leader Award.  Each year staff members nominate employees who possess the qualities of a servant leader.  The Board of Trustees selects three recipients from the nominees - one from each employee group: Professional, Manual Trades/Custodial, and Paraprofessional.

Qualities of a Servant Leader

  • Devote themselves to serving the needs for MISD
  • Focus on meeting the needs of those whom they serve
  • Foster an environment that brings out the best in others through their actions
  • Listen and build a sense of community
