An Update on the Institute for Leadership & Purpose
Last spring, Calvert School announced the creation of The Institute for Leadership & Purpose, an all-school initiative to formalize and expand our leadership and character curriculum from Fifth Age to Eighth Grade. The exciting endeavor reflects our commitment to provide each child, with a dedicated goal of providing experiences that allow students of all ages to develop and implement skills that will impact our world in a positive way.

MISSION
The Institute for Leadership & Purpose at Calvert School recognizes each community member is capable of leadership. We believe a culture of leadership fosters an environment of self-discovery, compassion, and ethical decision-making that inspires a sense of purpose. By emphasizing the quality of leadership and de-emphasizing the individual leader, we maintain that leadership can be learned through purposeful modeling by all members of a community. The Institute seeks to develop confident, responsible, globally aware, and independent thinkers who are empowered to share their voice.
VISION & GOALS
The vision of the Institute for Leadership & Purpose at Calvert School is to create synergy within existing school programs, build upon a learning community of dedicated students, faculty, and staff, and to establish a mission-driven initiative that reinforces a positive and growth-oriented school culture. The Institute will enhance student programming and professional growth, and increase outreach with parents, alumni, community partners, and national organizations. The ultimate goal of the Institute is to become a pioneer in leadership and purpose programming for elementary and middle school students.
Calvert School is a coed independent lower and middle school.
