Rock Creek High School Leader Academy

The Rock Creek Leader Academy has been in existence for about three years. Jemery Lehning along with another teacher are the facilitators of this organization. This year they have 28 students participating in the Leader Academy.

Their group came into contact with a lady who makes bears from scrap pieces of fabric. For their Do Good in December Project, they are taking what she makes, stuffing them and adding a tag of encouragement to each individual bear. They have 225 bears that they will donate to seven different organizations in their area.

“Our Leader program is all about giving and making others better. We try and teach that by doing things for others and making them better helps us become better leaders and members of society. It is our focus to teach our students how to give of themselves and how they can change the lives of others. explained Jemery.
