Purpose of the Character Development and Leadership Curriculum for High School and Middle School Students. The Character Development & Leadership Curriculum for High School and Middle School changes students, changes schools and changes communities. It improves students' understanding of what character and leadership mean and naturally translates into more effective behavior in school and in life.
