James C. Hunter’s book, The Servant, is the foundation for this class. He writes that leadership begins with will, our unique ability as humans to align our intentions with our actions and behavior choices. With the proper will, we can choose to love, which is about identifying and fulfilling the needs, not the wants, of those we lead. When we meet the needs of others, we will be called upon to serve and even sacrifice. When we serve and sacrifice for others, we build authority or influence. When we build influence and authority, we have then earned the right to be called a leader. It is within this framework that will work throughout the year to develop student experience, the growth of communication skills and build strong relationships. Emphasis is placed on helping ninth grade and new students find success in high school. Students will learn skills necessary for effective mentorship, event planning and implementation, evaluation and self reflection.
