Some people are born to be leaders, others have leadership thrust upon them...right? Although it's important to develop leadership in the students who are natural leaders, who may be more extraverted and outgoing, leadership expert Patrick Mainieri encourages music educators to invite more introverted students into leadership spaces as well. Any student can thrive as a leader!

All high school students are encouraged to sign up for Leadership Weekend at the BOA Summer Camp, where they learn to reach beyond and unlock their full potential.
