A dynamic cohort of seniors at P-Tech Norwalk High School has taken the reins as mentors and role models for incoming freshmen, spearheading the BOSS Academy course.
Selected for their leadership qualities, these seniors are championing the BOSS Academy initiative, aimed at guiding and inspiring the next generation of students. Under the guidance of Principal Victor Black and Assistant Principal Beth Furnari, BOSS Academy is on track to become an integral part of the school’s culture.
Principal Black commented, “I envision BOSS Academy as an essential component of our school’s culture, fostering leadership and empowerment among our students.”
The impact of BOSS Academy is palpable, with classrooms buzzing during advisory periods as seniors lead engaging sessions for their younger peers. Following extensive training last school year, these seniors are now equipped to facilitate the BOSS Academy curriculum effectively.
Boss Academy is A comprehensive 12-session youth development program designed to help youth develop self-esteem and build confidence so they can make healthy choices. The course helps students take charge and be the boss of their dreams.
Students learn to: Embrace Big dreams, Get Out of their comfort zone, Develop a Strategy for success and Stick to their goals.
Aaron, one of the BOSS facilitators, shared his enthusiasm, stating, “BOSS Academy has become the coolest club in the school. Everybody wants to be a part of it.”
Looking ahead, Principal Black is looking to expand the BOSS Academy program, recognizing its potential to impact the school community positively.
