National Center for Girls' Leadership at Stuart

 

The National Center for Girls’ Leadership at Stuart is charged with delivering the mission to prepare girls for lives of exceptional leadership and service. It has been said that some people are born leaders.  We believe that leadership can be cultivated and developed through an exploration of leadership theory, the development of leadership skills and qualities, and the application of this knowledge. Established in 2015, the National Center for Girls' Leadership at Stuart (NCGLS) works to support and empower the next generation of female leaders both in Stuart’s community and nationally. Through research, professional programming, development of innovative EC-12 curriculum, and national events, the NCGLS serves as a resource to parents, students and educators throughout the world.

The Harris B. Siegel Fund for Student Leadership

The expansion of our leadership programs has been made possible by the Harris B. Siegel Fund for Student Leadership, established by Patricia Costante and Stephanie Champi ’12. Their generous gift was given to Stuart in gratitude for Mr. Siegel, a long time director of college counseling.
