Teaching students about leadership and responsibility is a fundamental precept of good citizenship. We spend 2½ days in this special program building trust, developing effective communication skills and promoting respect through a series of creative activities. Character education includes challenging initiative tasks in which students must strategize in order to solve problems, our climbing wall and high ropes course. These climbing experiences teach students about commitment, support and the nature of challenge. During this leadership experience, students discover what kind of personal attributes are important in fostering a close knit and trusting team.
