Gentlemen of Excellence is an organization for young men created by Mr. Reginald Williams. After working in the school system for the past three years, Reginald, like Earvin Johnson, recognized that "all kids need a little help, a little hope, and someone who believes in them." Seeing that young men lacked certain life skills and could use guidance inspired him to develop the foundation for GoE.
All A.F.S. male students interested in joining the organization should contact Mr. Reginald Williams via email at reginald.williams@rpsb.us
The purpose of the group is to empower male youth to become successful young men by developing strong leaders socially, emotionally, and psychologically in order to create positive change within our community. This is accomplished by creating a brotherhood within the organization while involving the young men in activities that emphasize the importance of education in and out of the school setting.
The core tenets of Gentleman of Excellence are as follows:
I. Empower male youth
II. Emphasize the importance of education
III. Increase the likelihood for their success
IV. Develop strong leaders socially, emotionally, and psychologically
V. Create a brotherhood
VI. Create a positive change within our Community
