The Youth Leadership New Braunfels class of 2023 has been selected, with 28 students making the roster. The newest Youth Leadership participants met for their orientation last week.
The 2023 class marks the 26th group of high school sophomores and juniors to go through the program, which has graduated nearly 700 young leaders since its inception in 1997. The roster includes students from Canyon High School, Davenport High School, John Paul II, Canyon Lake High School, Memorial Early College High School, New Braunfels High School, and New Braunfels Christian Academy.
The purpose of the Youth Leadership New Braunfels program is to train students in leadership techniques and community awareness, so they become familiar with current issues, community resources, opportunities and other factors influencing the direction of their community’s future. The class will meet monthly beginning in October, for seven school-day sessions covering topics such as leadership skills, tourism, history, arts, government, the justice system, health care, business and economic development, and education.
