Over 4,200 students
and educators attended Student Leadership Series (SLS) events held at six
junior high schools including: Hutcheson, Workman, Carter, Ferguson, Ousley,
and Barnett. The tour was organized in partnership with the General
Motors Foundation and the Arlington Independent School District. USHLI is
very grateful to the GM and Arlington ISD team for organizing this highly
successful tour.
 
The featured
speakers were the Cuban Guy and Jimmy Cabrera, two of the top motivational
speakers in the nation and favorites among students of all ages from middle school
to college.
  
The SLS is USHLI's flagship youth program. Our goal in
2014 is to serve 200,000
students, parents, and educators in 30 states. The program will serve
to motivate students at all grade levels and college, train parents, and help
educators expand their cultural competencies. An estimated 17,356 have
been served to date in 5
states.
The SLS program
focuses on
Stay-in-School Rallies for middle school students, Career & College
Recruitment Fairs for high school students, Regional Leadership Summits
for college students, Leadership
Training for parents and Professional Development for
educators.
