Themed Courageous Leadership, the conference helps young scholars take an introspective and highly-personalized assessment of their leadership skills and abilities.
Throughout the four day program, scholars worked to build a “toolkit” of strategies to help them successfully dream, create and implement plans that will change how they view their role as leaders in their community.
“The conference was a life changing experience and I was just fortunate to be nominated and able to go,” said Flormann, in a prepared statement. “By the time I left the conference the people around me had become my friends. This friendship highlighted the greatest and most important leadership quality of all. … Trust in those around you.”
Flormann is an honor student at Long River Middle School where he is president of the eighth grade class.
