Board End Statement #2:
“Students have acquired the skills and knowledge required to be productive citizens and contribute to their communities.”

Leadership is about service. Students can make a difference in their communities–and globally–as well as in their school. Mustang Service Corps is a way to organize and mobilize Mustang students’ power in service to others.
