We celebrated! Students synthesized everything—Courage, Resilience, Priorities, Commitment—into a personal Leadership Development Plan. They defined what kind of leader they want to be and commissioned each other to go lead.
This isn't the end; it's the launch. Your student now has tools and a vocabulary for leadership. They need you to continue reinforcing these truths so they become permanent character traits, not just class notes.
The Legacy Statement: Ask to see your student's "Leadership Legacy Statement." Frame it or put it on the fridge. Remind them of it often.
Parent Tip: Tell them specifically: "I see a leader in you." Your belief fuels their potential.
How have I grown as a leader during these 15 weeks alongside my student?
- Which of the 4 pillars (Courage, Resilience, Priorities, Commitment) do you feel strongest in now?
- What's one thing you know about leadership now that you didn't 15 weeks ago?
- How can I help you keep growing as a leader?
Commissioning Dinner: Go out for a special meal or make a favorite dinner to celebrate completing the course. Go around the table and speak one leadership quality you see in your student (e.g., "I see courage in you when..."). Pray a blessing over their future.
Keep using the language. "That was a resilient choice." "Way to prioritize." "Great courage." Keep the vocabulary alive in your home.
