The Lasallian Student Leaders (LSL) program is designed to help participants to:

•	Become principled and mission-centered leaders for Lasallian schools and schools which share a second charism.

•	Develop the necessary skills for effective school leadership.

•	Learn skills for specific school areas and tasks.

•	Plan and prepare to provide leadership and programs in their school community for the upcoming year.


•	Establish collaborative working relationships with individuals and programs within and outside of their school community.

Dates:
Sunday July 20 through Friday July 25, 2008.

Place:
Saint Mary’s College of California, Moraga, California.

Who:
15 identified student leaders from each secondary school in the District of San Francisco and other invited Lasallian schools.

Each school will also send two or more moderators in order to establish a 1:10 adult to student ratio.

Each school determines its own means of selecting participants. LSL typically has drawn students from the following areas of campus life:

•

Student government elected or appointed leaders, especially the ASB executive council (it is recommended that those elected to specific offices be expected to take part in LSL)

•

Student leaders engaged in Campus Ministry

•

Student leaders who serve as Yearbook Editors

•

Student leaders in other key areas: athletics, drama, music, peer counseling, etc.

Cost:

The cost per person (including adults) is $325.00. This includes lodging, food, materials, T-shirt, and other administrative costs. Please see your school moderator for information about how this cost can be paid, as financial aid is available in many schools and the cost to students will vary.

Schedule:
LSL begins on a Sunday afternoon and concludes the following Friday at noon. The program includes daily prayer, high-energy speakers, leadership skill training sessions, practicum committees, idea-sharing workshops, socials and networking, and, of course, three meals a day. The schedule is busy, but participants are afforded several hours a day of recreational or downtime.
