That we are all called to be leaders is something that all students learn at Servite. Our motto is “Forming Faith-Filled Leaders.” These are not empty words, however, as students are taught leadership principles and best practices and then given opportunities to put those into personal action. Our Formation Themes are woven together both by implication and conscious approach by teachers, administrators, coaches, and students. These create a foundation in our school culture by which we all know we need to improve personally, morally, and spiritually. “Keeping it real,” as the boys would say, means putting words into action.
At Servite, leadership is a result of being who you are – the blossoming of the formation process that begins when you first step foot on campus, and never ends; the natural and powerful influence of a man who knows who he is and who God made him to be. While challenges surround us constantly, whether from human nature or from negative cultural influences, so do solutions. It may be that the most important leadership action is simply the will of a faith-filled leader to identify something better and to act on it. Thanks to innovative endeavors like the Priory Leadership Program, that will is intentionally developed at Servite High School.
