The third class in the PRIDE Masters
Leadership Development Program launched with an overnight retreat recently at
the Barren River State Park Lodge. Allen County-Scottsville High School sophomores
Sarah Hartman, Taylor Huff, Trent Huizenga, Austin Minix, Emma Robison, Shea Robison, and Abigail
Stamps participated in the July 31-August 1 retreat.
. “During the two days of leadership training the group
participated in team building skills and explored some historical and cultural
aspects of Allen County,” explained PRIDE Master community advisor Kerri Barman.
“The PRIDE Masters also took part in the Myers-Briggs Personality testing where
they not only learned about their own personality trait, but also how to work
with others with differing traits.”
The
annual retreat is designed as an ice breaker for the new class of future
community leaders. In the coming months, the sophomore PRIDE Masters will
continue with leadership development training as well as working with junior
and senior PRIDE Masters. The Class of 2019 and Class of 2020 PRIDE Masters
will also be engaged in additional training as well as serving in a variety of
ways in the school district and community.
