Philosophy:
Personal Growth
Mowglis
provides a personal growth experience for every individual.
Personal growth can mean many things but here at Mowglis it means
competence, confidence, and respect.
Boys will gain competence across a broad range of skill sets. We
encourage boys to become well-rounded individuals, and to challenge
themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally. The structure of the
program, and goal-oriented approach keep boys motivated to learn and
try new things, and to excel in their efforts at all levels of
ability.
Along with the practical skills that are learned through the program,
boys gain confidence in themselves. By trying new things in an
environment which nurtures participation and support, boys gain the
confidence to participate rather than observe. They also experience
the pride associated with realizing their goals and being recognized
by peers and staff. Honors such as Inner Circle, Washington Squad,
Gopher Squad, Racing Crew reinforce this pride.
Part of each boys personal growth is to gain respect for those around
him. By living in a safe environment for 7 weeks among a diverse
population, respect for others, patience, and tolerance are natural
by-products of this experience. Boys also gain a respect for nature by
living in beautiful surroundings.
