Leading Edge Explorer

New in 2008, the Leading Edge Explorer is for students who have completed 9th or 10th grade. Like all Leading Edge programs, the Explorer program begins with an on-campus leadership workshop, followed by an extended backpacking expedition. However, the curriculum for this program is specially tailored to set students up for early success in high school. We place a greater emphasis in this program on self-awareness, and on helping students understand their own leadership style and preference. With this foundation, we then provide simple skills, tools, and training to help students begin to learn how to influence their peers in groups or on teams.
