Setting The Course In Student Leadership

VG Leadership Academy

   
Are you tapping into your student leaders' potential?  We recognize that all students possess the ability to contribute to their school and community, however, most students seldom receive formal training on basic leadership principals.

The VG Leadership Academy creates a space where academic and athletic student leaders receive customized, intensive three-day training that builds leadership skills and character.

With follow-up assignments and review throughout the year, student leaders are empowered to put into action all they have learned, creating a dynamic and caring school culture.
