2011年,我们的校长Stephen Livingston博士和董事会成员Jeff Reeter在缅因州肯纳邦克波特(Kennebunkport)与乔治和芭芭拉·布什(George & Barbara Bush)一起讨论了为高中生设立领导力中心的想法。 他们引用了《哈佛商业评论》(Harvard Business Review)的一项研究,该研究得出的结论是,开始担任主管职位后,人们开始学习领导技能的平均年龄大约是10岁。 在多个项目和课程中有目的地向高中生教授领导概念和技能的想法,过去是,现在仍然是,创新和有影响力的。 布什总统和夫人对这个概念很感兴趣,在他们的祝福下,乔治和芭芭拉布什学者和领袖中心诞生了。
Housed on the campus of Houston Christian High School, 布什中心 boasts the largest collection of President Bush artifacts in Houston, Texas, w在这里 each component tells the story of the President and First Lady’s work while in office and their relentless efforts in helping to build young leaders.
服务是杰出学者计划的重要组成部分,提醒我们领导始于服务的意愿。 This year, our DSP 9–12 scholars partnered with Inspiration Ranch in Magnolia, TX, an organization that provides equine-assisted therapy and learning programs for children and adults with physical, emotional, and social challenges.
学生 spent the day completing a major facilities project by painting fencing that will extend its lifespan by 5 to 10 years, while also learning about the Ranch’s unique equine-assisted psychotherapy and therapeutic riding programs. The staff expressed deep gratitude for the scholars’ hard work, and many students returned eager to find more ways to serve after experiencing the impact of their efforts firsthand.
At the program’s first luncheon of the year, each student was placed into a Legacy, a leadership-centered community they will belong to for the duration of their time in the program. Rooted in the Five Pillars of Leadership promoted by the Bush Center for Scholars and Leaders—Character, Communication, Competency, Compassion, and Courage—these Legacies establish a framework for growth, belonging, and purpose-driven leadership.
在这一年中,学生们将参与合作挑战和有意义的经历,培养品格,加强沟通,激发勇气。 We are grateful for opportunities that enrich our students’ educational journey and celebrate the traditions that prepare them to lead with purpose and conviction.
我们将创新理解为为重要问题创造深思熟虑的解决方案的过程。 Innovation runs throughout the story of Houston Christian’s beginning and its remarkable growth. 随着我们的世界不断变化,我们看到工业、金融、政府和教育工作者都需要创新。 这一经历证实了我们的信念,即培养创新思维对培养学生塑造未来至关重要。 我们有意将创新融入休斯顿基督徒的领导经验中。
The 国际学生领导计划 brings together future leaders through the study of the world’s most impactful leaders and how they accomplished their life’s work. 你将进行案例研究,文化分析,并发展自己的领导哲学,这样你就可以自信地走进任何场景。
