The GLI Summer Institute for students entering grades four and five emphasizes how leadership relies on building relationships. Together, girls will learn to set goals, face challenges with courage, and develop greater resilience.

The GLI Summer Institutes for students entering grades six, seven, and eight forms a strong foundation for leadership within school and the greater community. They will build character and confidence by identifying and prioritizing their individual values and belief systems.

The Upper School GLI Program offers greater immersion in real-life experiences. As they tackle outdoor ventures, case studies, and team-building challenges, leaders will deepen their understanding of negotiating difficult situations, inspiring and motivating others, delivering and receiving feedback, and ethical decision making.

GLI teaches leadership as a series of skills development and better understanding of self. These six GLI Pillars are the foundational skills and content upon which each of our programs are developed.

Bring GLI to your community! Leadership is core to our K–12 curriculum at Kent Place, we are working to advance girls’ leadership through adding research, partnerships, and collaboration to serve our students at Kent Place and the wider community. We offer professional development workshops and programming for families.

We have a network of over 600 women leaders who have graduated from our institutes! Graduates go on to become student government leaders, yearbook editors, team captains, and club presidents. They take their Action Plans and make positive changes in their communities. They come back to GLI each year and become mentors.
