THE INDIVIDUAL IS THE ONE WITH THE POWER TO CHANGE THE WORLD
At Missouri Boys State, we draw together the best and the brightest high school juniors each year and help lead them down the path of individual success and leadership through doing, not just learning. Using our democratic system as a basis, we equip the citizens of MBS to construct their own state, utilizing the core values that hold true in our everyday lives. We teach the need for competition, the value of public office, the strength of the individual voice and vote. By reinforcing these basic American ideals, we help them all to shape the future.
