Closing Program-Families are encouraged to attend
We strongly encourage parents to attend the closing day program for the Leadership Institute. This is an opportunity for parents, family and friends to meet faculty and administrators involved with the program. Your student will also be giving a short presentation of his/her Action Plan for how they will apply their new knowledge and skills in their home communities. The schedule for the closing program:
1:00-1:30 Comments from Director, introduction of faculty and staff
1:30-2:30 Student presentations of Action Plans in small groups
We hope that you will join us for what will be an inspiring climax to your students' experience.
