| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc | 0 | EDGE OF LEADERSHIP: The Edge of Leadership program provides adventure-based youth leadership development through work performed in schools and on our Brattleboro campus and challenge course. Our three experiential educators with 54 years of collective experience guide students in grades 5 through 12 -- and their teachers -- to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills, increase social and emotional intelligence, work collaboratively in and out of the classroom, manage projects while guiding and leading others, and open doors to improving school culture and academic performance. In 2015 EOL launched a 3-year demonstration project to apply the EOL model system-wide in the Keene, NH school district. All 5th graders receive monthly 90-minute sessions in the classroom plus 2 days on the challenge course, for 32 hours of contact time. 7th graders receive 90-minute sessions every other month plus a Challenge course day, for 14 contact hours. High school groups pick a particular issue to work on and improve in their school, with leadership development programming that includes teachers. Total served in 2015: 229 students, 25 teachers, 13 sites. Since 2011, a total of 860 people have participated in EOL at 24 sites. |
