Leadership Academy

Leadership Academy

What is Leadership Academy?
Leadership Academy prepares high school seniors for post-graduation life, giving them knowledge and experiences typically found outside of the classroom. Leadership Academy will meet every afternoon from 1:00 - 3:00.  Each week, sessions will focus on career exploration, life skills, critical and holistic thinking, as well as community engagement through service.

The students will be connected with real-world businesses, entrepreneurial opportunities, and collaborative connections. Students will gain and improve upon their teamwork skills, initiative, and decision-making. All of these components will fuse together to construct an independent and confident leader.

Why Leadership Academy?
Many Omaha Street School students lack the confidence and direction to set their own course after high school. They learn the common academic skills in high school but lack the abilities and support system to acquire a skill set that will allow the students to actively seek their real-life career goals. Leadership Academy will push students out into the real world, engage them with potential future careers, and give them a chance to explore their career interests. Leadership Academy directs students towards opportunities and connections that allow them to experience the real world with the support of Omaha Street School right behind them.
