== '''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;">Leadership Retreat TrainingA large portion of Converse's student body holds a leadership position on campus. One a year, these students converge in a multiple day leadership retreat, where they learn the basics of heading the coalitions and student boards they will be taking part in the entire school year.

Students will be given a high level task, that they They can divide into How Might We's, and rapidly move from brainstormnig rapidly brainstorming solutions to presenting their days day’s work. this This process, we believe will strengthen their ability to work in high stress situations, communicate with a an interdisciplinary group, quickly prototype and roll out potential solutions, and learn from failures. Use of this model rather than preaching the tenets of leadership would be an amazing, a fast paced way to get these students immersed in I&E culture while also learning tangible skills that will aid them throughout the school year.</span></span>'''
