Laurel Senior Completes Look Up To Cleveland Program

8/21/2017

Alyssa Johnson '18 recently completed a week with Look Up To Cleveland as part of its Summer Class of 2017 and came away with a new understanding of her impact and future in the City of Cleveland and Northeast Ohio.

The Look Up To Cleveland program provides students with the opportunity to develop leadership skills, gain a deeper appreciation of our community, and build relationships among a diverse group of young leaders. Participants often say they are better equipped to appreciate all Cleveland has to offer and to become student ambassadors for our region.

LookUp Summer was offered as two separate one-week sessions this summer for 30 rising high school juniors and seniors in each session. Students came from all parts of Cuyahoga County and represented public, private and parochial schools. As part of the week students explored Cleveland’s arts, economy, varying neighborhoods, and developed their own vision for future impact. Along the way, they met with some of the city’s top leaders including Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson; Federal US Marshal Pete Elliott; and representatives of a variety of community development organizations.

We are proud of Alyssa for her commitment to becoming a leader within our community!
