LEADERSHIP DAY

• What is Leadership Day?

Leadership Day occurs monthly on what used to be Dress for Success Day. Scholars dress in their formal Centennial Academy Uniforms and plan to entertain our guests over lunch throughout the day. The day begins with a Celebration of our scholars who have been nominated by their teachers during Hero Breakfast. Hero Breakfast is an intimate gathering of select scholars and their parents that celebrates their leadership over the course of a month.

The day continues as we dress up our lunches and invite parents and community partners to have lunch with our scholars. All visitors will be invited in advance and prepped on the expectations we have for our scholars. Our scholars will be prepped on how to hold good conversations, be engaged listeners, and exhibit restaurant behaviors. Our older scholars will be working on how to conduct a business lunch in preparation for their Apprenticeships.
