empowered to listen to each other, think together and actively identify
strengths to build stronger and more confident leaders and teams. Additionally, students will learn about
Lewis County industries, economic development efforts, regional assets,
history, culture, needs and opportunities within Lewis County. By building
pride in Lewis County, the Leadership Academy will work to develop highly
skilled, motivated, and informed leaders who will use their knowledge and
networks to enhance our civic infrastructure, ultimately creating a more
vibrant quality of life for all.
