Abstract

This learning module is the third in a series of components in the Emerging Servant Leaders (ESL) Program, an initiative designed to engage youth who wish to grow as leaders by focusing on serving a cause larger than self. The premise of the ESL Program is that self-government in a free, representative republic doesn’t happen automatically but requires proactive involvement to pass along the wisdom of the ages to future generations. Its goal is to develop among young adults a cadre of selfless, outwardly focused citizens for our region, state, and nation. Geared toward high school students, the ESL Program is composed of six online/classroom hybrid learning modules plus an in-person capstone experience. This particular module, Cultivating Good Citizenship, focuses on principles and pageantry of the American story.
