“We must educate students not just to BE smart but to ACT smart.”
Intellectual Character: What It Is, Why It Matters and How to Get it
Ron Ritchhart

Each MICDS division has a Learning Specialist and a Counselor who support the MICDS mission to prepare students to think critically, act responsibly, and live virtuously and compassionately.  These professionals support all students in becoming self-aware, self-regulated, strategic learners equipped to cope with challenges at MICDS and beyond.  They recognize the academic lives and the socio-emotional lives of students are inextricably linked and work to create a culture recognizing the importance of both an appreciation for learning and the continued development of strong moral character. The learning specialists and counselors work in close consultation with each other as well as with other faculty members to help all students reach their true potential in intellectual character.
