President Ronald Reagan once said, “Since the founding of this Nation, education and democracy have gone hand in hand.”
We embrace the idea that when leadership skills are nurtured and developed, the result is a new generation of thoughtful, proactive, action-oriented citizens and a stronger democracy.
Through state-of-the-art programs, immersive learning opportunities, and digital technology, we extend that core tenet into the 21st century and beyond.
These opportunities offer a range of unique, innovative learning experiences that cultivate leadership, communication, and decision-making skills to inspire and empower the leaders of tomorrow.
Our Goal
To develop and inspire the leaders of tomorrow through immersive and impactful learning opportunities. We aim to improve the leadership, communication, and decision-making skills of every student we meet, whether around the corner or across the nation.
What We Do
Great leaders aren’t born. We believe it takes a lot of hard work and a lot of practice to develop the essential skills of civic leadership. That’s why we offer a broad range of activities, programs, opportunities, and rewards. We want to support each student throughout their leadership journey, from the lunch line to the real world. And because you never know where life will take you, we offer a broad range of programs and courses online. That way, no matter where you are, we’re there to support you. Here’s a sampling of what we offer.
