LeadSGF Academy Applications Open
Hello,
The applications for the 2020-2021 Academy Class program have officially launched and we are in the process of recruiting current high school sophomores to apply to be in this program during their junior year.
The Leadership Springfield Academy Class is a community leadership program established in 1990 to help youth in their junior year discover how to be more engaged citizens and develop as community leaders. During this nine month program in the 2020-2021 school year, a class of 32 students will explore their strengths, learn about the local community, and coordinate monthly program days where they get to see firsthand how leaders work together to structure and influence the community around them. Students will gain project management skills, leadership aptitude and a newfound appreciation for the work that goes into making our community function. Most of all, the program is designed to inspire, develop and connect our local students to see the impact they can have on the community.
I have attached a flyer and program year calendar. Please feel free to distribute these to any sophomores you know in the Springfield community. The students may complete the Academy Class application online anytime between now and March 30. Please note that they do not have to complete this application at one time. To save and continue working on your application later, they may click 'Save' at the bottom of any page, enter your email address, and click 'Send' to email yourself the link to continue working on your application at a later time.
Please visit our website for more information on the program and let the students know that they can join us for our Academy Class Information Session event on Wednesday, February 19 from 3:30-5:30. This come and go event will be held at the Leadership Springfield office at 1711 W Battlefield, Suite A. Feel free to stop by to ask us any questions you have about the Academy Class as well.
Thank you,
Ashley Clair, Communications Director
Leadership Springfield, Inc.
