The Global Youth Leadership Camp is a six-day program organized by Northern Illinois University and funded by the U.S. Department of State. It will be held on May 3-12. This is a free opportunity for selected Illinois high school students, ages 15-17, to work alongside peers from ten Southeast Asian countries, to learn about diverse cultures, to build lasting friendships, practice leadership and civic action skills, and to join a tour to Washington, D.C. Selected students will also take part in a challenging academic environment and intensive civic leadership training. To succeed, the participants must be highly motivated and be able to collaborate with people of different social and cultural backgrounds.

Download and complete the application or complete it online. All materials must be received by March 1, 2024.

If you have any concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Southeast Asia Youth Leadership Program at cphanenbecker@niu.edu, 815-753-6956.

Are you interested in learning about the various career options available in St. Charles? Through the city's career pathway job shadow program, Compass students can shadow people in many career fields, including office administration, communications, accounting, firefighting, government, law enforcement, construction, forestry, water management, and vehicle maintenance. Students who participate in job shadowing on Wednesdays, and then write reflections about their experiences, have the opportunity to earn credit for career exploration.

Students may register for these opportunities by scanning the QR code on the bulletin board in the academic hallway or by getting a paper copy of the form from the counselor's office. If students have questions, they should view the video shown in advisory, which outlines everything they need to know about this opportunity, or make an appointment with Ms. Ohlson, the Compass counselor.
