leadership institute

 

Dear Colleagues, Do you know a student who would like to help their community and impact issues that matter to them? Service in Schools invites you to refer students in grades 10-12 to apply to participate in the 2024 Leadership Institute! This is an exciting opportunity for students to connect with their peers from across the city, learn from experts from community-based organizations, and teach elementary students how to help their community! Learn more in the program FAQ and share the application with your students! Students in grades 10-12 who are interested in becoming leaders while also serving the community should be encouraged to apply. The program consists of a five-day in-person Institute in midtown Manhattan during spring break, from Monday, April 22 through Friday, April 26, 2024 from 9:00am-3:00pm each day, and an in-person after-school session in early May. Throughout the program, students will work in small groups to learn about local issues, culminating in the planning and implementation of a day-long Youth Service Summit for elementary school students in late May 2024. Interested students should complete the application by 11:59pm on Monday, March 4. If you or students have any questions, feel free to email us at ServiceinSchools@schools.nyc.gov. Thank you,
