2024 Outstanding Program Award!
OKLAHOMA FOUNDATION FOR EXCELLENCE
LEADERSHIP
Students will have the chance to explore their unique leadership style, acquire essential leadership skills, and actively apply these skills through committee work, public speaking engagements, interaction with peers from other schools, and community involvement. District and community leaders will join students at monthly meetings as guest speakers to enrich the students' learning experiences about leadership.
ADVOCACY
Students will discover the art of crafting a compelling personal brand that can effectively champion public education and support the Edmond Public Schools (EPS) through the Edmond Public Schools Foundation (EPSF). Through attending public events, actively participating on social media platforms, and spreading the EPSF message within their schools and communities, students will learn how to effectively advocate for EPS.
PHILANTHROPY
Students will gain a deep appreciation for the significance of community support and its direct impact on their education. As they actively engage in various fundraising campaigns, students will not only acquire valuable knowledge about philanthropy but also become philanthropists themselves. Students will contribute to advancement of their education and foster a sense of empowerment and responsibility within their community.
