Logic and Leadership Virtual Academy - Session A1

Online learning and social distancing have made it harder for teenagers to stay motivated and engaged. We have created a unique virtual program to help students thrive in these challenging times.

This course comes from 28 years of professional development research. We have found that stability, happiness, and success come from understanding leadership and social skills. But you cannot force teenagers to learn these principles. Students must learn how to apply them in their own lives and at their own pace.

In our program, students meet 4 days a week for 3 weeks for fun and interactive activities that relate to students’ interests. Students work one-on-one with a certified life coach to set goals, form successful habits, and plan for their futures.

This program is a $650 value, but due to COVID-19, LSA is offering this program for $350.

Logic and Leadership Virtual Academy - Session C3

Online learning and social distancing have made it harder for teenagers to stay motivated and engaged. We have created a unique virtual program to help students thrive in these challenging times.

This course comes from 28 years of professional development research. We have found that stability, happiness, and success come from understanding leadership and social skills. But you cannot force teenagers to learn these principles. Students must learn how to apply them in their own lives and at their own pace.

In our program, students meet 4 days a week for 3 weeks for fun and interactive activities that relate to students’ interests. Students work one-on-one with a certified life coach to set goals, form successful habits, and plan for their futures.

This program is a $650 value, but due to COVID-19, LSA is offering this program for $350.

Theatre for Social Justice II with Benedicta Akley-Quarshie, Half-Day, Online

The main goal of this 4-day Theatre for Social Justice workshop is to engage students in physical performance and conversations related to civic involvement. Using a combination of forum theatre – where the viewers are able to interrupt and change the narrative of the piece, process drama – where both the students and teacher are working in and out of role, and story drama – where literature is used as a ‘springboard’ for participants to explore beyond the actual text, students will be challenged to critically think about stories and dramatic content they encounter, make connections to their own lives, and current happenings in the United States. As an ensemble, we will reimagine already existing dramatic texts and use our voices and beliefs to recreate scenarios centered on equity and social justice.
