Student Athlete Leadership Program
For more information please contact us at jhoedel@characterandleadership.com or 231-938-4140.
Working closely with coaches, we developed a digitally-based program to develop the character, leadership and sportsmanship of high school students - on athletic teams or in PE Classes.
It's easy to use, it's inexpensive and it works!
This is the perfect complement to the character education "classroom" curriculum, that is currently used in 3,500+ high schools across the country.
Hey, Ho, We have got to go back to school for a week of so.
Program Highlights
- This program is intended for use with students in athletics or in PE classes.
- We provide enough content to cover 4 years without redundancy (144 weeks).
- This is a digitally-based program that provides 2-5 minutes of daily content.
- Students respond to a reflective question after each lesson. Those responses go directly to their coaches/teachers, who can then lead meaningful conversations.
- All athletes receive a positive daily message focused on a positive character trait, which helps to develop a positive culture across all sports.
