Another great day of leadership took place at the Palace of Auburn Hills last week, due largely to the efforts of the student leaders from Troy High School. In partnership with the Detroit Pistons, all student attendees helped to assemble hygienic bags to hand out to students in the Flint community to help ease the pain the water crisis has caused. Troy High School collected items and raised funds to assemble these critical items that created 500 individual bags to donate! A HUGE thank you for their inspirational work and to all students that attended to work on this wonderful service project.

Last week, all schools attending our upcoming State Conference received a detailed email with important details. This email contains information on what to bring, what to wear, registration process and showcase presentation procedures (and much more!) In case you missed it, view the email here.

Leadership Camp brings together more than 500 student leaders from across the state to participate in interactive lessons that challenge them to step outside their comfort zones and help them develop leadership skills with an emphasis on communication, group process and goal-setting abilities. Our experienced leadership educators present students with relevant issues for thought and discussion and practice across dozens of skill-sets - each engineered to build students practical application on the principals of leadership. If you’ve sent students to Camp before, you know first hand the impactful different they make in your buildings upon return. For full Camp information click here.

It's a problem of dramatically increasing frequency. Students, off-campus at the time, sending messages to other students via social media that bully, torment, threaten, and create turmoil. Students claim a right to free speech and point to the fact that they were not at school when they made the postings. But the school faces the very real concern of what might happen between the students as a result of the online activity when the students are at school. Click here for the full article.
