Through our three-part Emerging Leaders Program (ELP), we provide students in grades 9-12 with a toolkit of integrative, interdisciplinary, and transferable skills and strategies to support them in their path toward becoming leaders of their own futures. ELP I centers around the individual needs of each student. From the onset of the program, students brainstorm and design a unique roadmap for their professional and personal goals in the Vision for Life workshop. Additionally, students will see the college-to-job pipeline connection in our Journey to the Future workshop, where they will explore how their college plans connect with potential careers. Beyond professional development, students will also be able to identify community issues personally important to them and understand their potential role as changemakers in the Civic Engagement workshop. These, among several other workshops, will put students on track towards being well-rounded citizen-scholars of the world. The most important knowledge students will receive through our programs will not be from the workshops themselves, but from the people in them. For the duration of the program, students will be assigned a mentor, like yourself, who will support students in their goals and facilitate small group discussions of 4-6 students in each workshop. Through this collaboration, students will not only be able to interact and exchange ideas with their ELP I peers, but they will interact with mentors who have significant careers, college, and life experience behind them. Additionally, you will get to mentor a small group of seniors who are seeking an invested adult to walk with them towards their goals after high school.
