Founded in 2006, The Brookstone Servant Leadership Program has the mission of developing Brookstone students into Servant Leaders. Goals of the program include teaching students the characteristics of servant leadership through self awareness and virtue development, broadening exposure and expanding opportunities for participation in leadership programs, centralizing and encouraging Brookstone's service, and gaining an understanding of servant leadership in preparation for life beyond Brookstone.
While students in all grades take part in the Servant Leadership Program in some capacity, the program's effects are not contained within the boundaries of the campus. Through partnerships with Fox Elementary School, Ricks Institute in Liberia, West Africa and The University of Georgia Leonard Scholars Program, Brookstone is crossing age, gender, racial, social, cultural, and geographic boundaries while instilling students with the tools of life-long learning and character development.
Partnerships

Activities with Fox Elementary include Fox Fun Day, 8th grade Reading Buddies, Upper School Key Club Math Buddies, and many other partnerships.
