Sophomores and Juniors are encouraged to apply for Youth Leadership Oconee.  Involvement in YLO is a wonderful opportunity for students to learn more about their own backyard and expose them to a wide variety of issues.  The Community Connect Card is also attached and it will give you an idea of the time requirements OUTSIDE of our regularly scheduled sessions.

This program is an excellent way to promote leadership skills and is a excellent addition to a student's resume of activities.  Links to the application and Community Connect Card are here and here
