Leadership. Life Skills. Healthy, Whole Person Development.

Life On Point meets weekly with students to encourage good decision making, help their peers develop and strengthen their leadership skills, and reinforce their sense of value and self-worth. Hands-on activities, field trips, poetry and essay contests, and service learning activities build on the weekly meetings, allowing teens to become critical thinkers and exercise leadership skills. The curriculum focuses on asset building in youth and includes the following units: Self-Discovery, Life Vision and Life Skills, Healthy Life Choices, Positive Support and Leadership for Service.
