About Our Student Leadership Program

Student Leadership Johns Creek is a program for emerging leaders in their sophomore and junior years. Students apply beginning December 1st of their Freshman or Sophomore years for the two-year program. Applicants are accepted from Centennial, Chattahoochee, Johns Creek, Innovation Academy and Northview High schools. The program is run by an advisory council under the board directorship of Leadership Johns Creek, a 501c3 nonā€profit in collaboration with Fulton County Schools.

In year one of this two year leadership program, leadership skills will be developed through a series of structured learning experiences and then utilized in a community outreach group project. In the second year, students will have a more individualized focus, implementing the skills learned in year one to find leadership opportunities after high school and college.

A class of approximately 50-53 young adults will be selected from area Johns Creek high schools and will be introduced to a core curriculum of leadership skills including goal setting, project management, team building and communication skills.
