High School Ethics Forum
Shaping Tomorrow's Ethical Leaders
Over 200 high school students gathered at Bear Down Gym on February 6, 2026, for a dynamic day of ethical leadership at the annual High School Ethics Forum. This hands on experience challenged students to think critically, collaborate with peers, and explore real world ethical decision making. Supported by 40 dedicated community volunteers and 25 University of Arizona facilitators, the event filled the gym with thoughtful dialogue, meaningful connections, and plenty of learning and laughter.
