The Wendell H. Ford Statesmanship Academy
Overview and Objectives:
The Academy is designed to be activity as well as lecture based and will consist of six-seven sessions during the school year for sophomores, juniors, and seniors. As sophomores, and continuing through their junior and senior years, students begin to engage in issue-driven conversations and learn to understand both sides of issues in order to reach compromise.
In addition, students learn to appreciate public service as well as develop skills needed in any discipline or work environment; meeting timelines, effective listening, punctuality, and group consensus building.
