►Community Outreach Leadership (COL)

  • Campus Leadership

    This course seeks to answer the fundamental question of what it means to be a Christian leader in our secular society.  The academic objective is to explore the biblical perspective of leadership.  The practical objective will be to live out these principles in our everyday lives.  It is the hope that this class will help students gain a better understanding of Christian leadership, strengthen their relationships with Christ, and give God glory by serving in their school and community. This course gives students the opportunity to serve their peers, their family, and their Valley Christian community. All leadership students will also play a vital role as Where Everyone Belongs leaders (WEB) for our new students.

    This elective is open to returning seventh or eighth grade students only. Students need to have the ability to serve as a Christian role model and be eager to share their faith in Jesus Christ with others. There will be a number of summer dates that you will need to set aside to participate in summer training. Placement in this class is by teacher approval.
