At Jesuit, there is a firm conviction that leaders are trained, not born. With that resolution in mind, students serving in leadership roles for the 2019-2020 school year are participating in the St. Francis Borgia Leadership Institute, a student leadership development program sponsored by Jesuit High School. The retreat is designed with the threefold purpose of identifying student leaders, offering formation in the virtues of leadership, and fostering collaboration among the different organizations, clubs, and teams within the school community. There were two workshops offered this summer, one at the end of May and one at the end of July (7/25-7/26), in order to accommodate as many student schedules as possible. The program seeks to integrate the role of service, school culture, and spiritual life of the students in formation. Most importantly, the workshop allows student leaders to become familiar with the various principles of leadership in practical situations. The Borgia Leadership Institute was started in 2014 by student activities director Matt Orillion ’98 , who continues to lead it today.
