Thank you to the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce for another great Youth Leadership Hall Kick-Off Event! Youth Leadership Hall (YLH) is a leadership development program for high school juniors and seniors. Founded in 2005, the program seeks to build individual leadership skills, foster positive group dynamics and increase civic and community involvement. Over 1,100 students have successfully completed the program through a series of sessions combining lectures and tours on such topics as the Judicial System, Economic Development, Social Services and Career Development.
While each year follows a similar format, programs adjusted to meet the specific needs and interests of the class while also staying abreast of current events. Students network with business leaders throughout community and gain career knowledge from a large variety of resources.

Excited to get this year going with our 2027 Youth Leadership Hall Class with our GHS students!

🎉 Work-Based Learning has officially begun at GMS West!
A big shout-out to Steven Cornett, Work-Based Learning Coordinator at GHS, for helping make this partnership possible! We look forward to growing this partnership and creating new opportunities for our students! ❤️🐘

Don’t let this happen to your WBL advisor! Make sure to get all your required documentation turned in on time this Friday!
