What we believe
Every child has a dream and deserves the chance to achieve it. Education unlocks a child’s future and full potential. That is why Project Leadership is committed to partnering with community residents and educators to:
1. Increase Grant County’s high school graduation and literacy rates and
2. Boost students’ college and life readiness.
Every child travels a path. Those with a plan who are surrounded by positive community voices will choose wisely.
Project Portfolio
Every student has a story. Some are telling it through Project Portfolio, designed to help students showcase their high school work and then share it to gain acceptance into colleges and secure jobs. Here’s how it works: Project Leadership provides the portfolio kit. Students add their own ingredients – skills, talents, dreams. More on Project Portfolio.
