• LEAD Parkway

    Leadership, Empathy, Advocacy and Diversity

    LEAD Parkway is a high school leadership program in which students from across the district gather for monthly meetings, participate in weekend retreats and embark on an experiential journey throughout the St. Louis region to better understand the Black and Jewish communities' history, culture, and identity.

    Participants will understand different systems of oppression and be able to discuss and analyze how they are all connected. They will hone their leadership capacity through practical skill training, including facilitation, public speaking, community organizing, inclusion, writing, curiosity and educated risk-taking.

    The application process opens in the spring of each school year.
