Dear Mr. Mitchell,
Earlier this year you nominated your high-achieving students to attend the Junior National Young Leaders Conference (JrNYLC). I'm happy to inform you that the following nominees arrived today: Hunter Rollings, Maria Swiersz & Brian Richards.
When you nominated these young scholars, you set them on their first steps in a lifelong leadership adventure. Over the coming days, they will participate in many experiential activities, site explorations and meetings with established leaders, each designed to enhance and nourish their existing leadership skills while challenging them to acquire new ones. Each scholar has been assigned to a Leadership Focus Group (LFG) led by a faculty advisor who will work with the scholars for the duration of the Conference. This group of students will work closely with one another as they experience the program curriculum. In each LFG's first meeting, your nominees engaged in icebreakers with the other scholars and received an introduction to the different leadership concepts that will be covered throughout JrNYLC: character, communication, goal setting, problem solving, respect and teamwork. The scholars also set group goals for the week and wrote a group constitution.
