Student Leadership Johns Creek (SLJC) kicked off their 2024-25 program. This year the students worked together to escape four different escape rooms at Odyssey Escape Games in Alpharetta. Our 200-plus students representing Innovation Academy, Mt. Pisgah, Providence Christian-Johns Creek, Johns Creek, Centennial, Chattahoochee, and Northview High Schools didn’t miss a beat and escaped the games in record time while learning about their group mates for the upcoming year.
"I’m really happy I went to the escape room with SLJC. It was a great bonding experience with the new Secretary of State Ambassadors. We worked together, had fun, and got closer as a team.” says Aubri Neal, a second-year student from Johns Creek High School and a member of the Secretary of State Ambassador team. Timi Akinyele, a second-year student from Innovation Academy adds, “The retreat was a fun way to connect with my fellow student ambassadors while participating in a challenging activity. Overall, I enjoyed the retreat. It was a great way to start the program year.”
The retreat marked the beginning of the 13th year of Student Leadership Johns Creek, launching a series of monthly in-person program days. First-year students will engage in community service projects and gain insights into government by visiting downtown Atlanta to learn about our state's operations; and Johns Creek City Hall to explore the city's daily functions. Second-year students will focus on developing their professional skills by creating online portfolios, including LinkedIn profiles and resumes, and participating in job shadowing opportunities with professionals in their fields of interest.
Applications for the Student Leadership Johns Creek 2025-26 class will be available December 1, 2024. StudentLeadershipJohnsCreek.com
