What is the TRCS Leadership Program?
The TRCS Leadership Program serves as a resource for our students to gain experience outside of their academic responsibilities. At TRCS we believe that leaders are people who actively take action to grow and help better themselves and the world. Thus, the Leadership Program exists to motivate students to find their own answers to two essential questions: how can I make the world a better place? and how can I contribute to the world when I am older?
The mission of the TRCS Leadership Program is threefold:
- To encourage students to explore their vocational interests
- To encourage students to explore their civic interests
- To help each student build a strong extra-curricular profile for college admission
Do the best you can, until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.
Maya Angelou
To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.
Arundhati Roy
Love takes off the masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. I use the word “love” here not merely in the personal sense but as a state of being, or a state of grace – not in the infantile American sense of being made happy but in the tough and universal sense of quest and daring and growth.
