Teamwork & Leadership Skills
Lessons and activities challenge students’ ability to make critical decisions, focus on core beliefs and values, recognize diversity and accept these differences as the work together towards a common goal.
The P.L.E.D.G.E. mission continues into high school, as the students and their School Resource Officer (SRO) strengthen their relationship.
The SRO mentors the incoming freshman with P.L.E.D.G.E. student meetings to discuss high school social issues effecting their transition progress.
