Heroic Youth and Science
Heroic Youth
In this leadership class, the girls and boys will learn about great men and women through hands on projects, relevant activities, and short presentations given by the students.
Students will:
• be inspired to center their lives on true and enduring principles
• read biographies about great men to learn about their contributions and character traits
• have hands-on, engaging lessons to help them more fully internalize and understand the principles being taught
• learn survival skills (knot tying, compass, camping skills, etc.)
• have regular P.E. games during lunch or in the afternoon
• participate in simple and meaningful, service projects once/month (including making toys to send to Africa!)
