What We Do

Videos focused on Innovation – produced by students!

The LEAP Education program empowers students to look at a problem, examine the solutions, tell the story and then share it with the wider world through video. Whether the problem is large or small, global or local – inspiration is the key. Through investigating the issues and potential solutions, students develop a powerful voice and are inspired to use it for promoting change in the world and connecting with their community. In addition they make dynamic, experiential connections to what they’ve learned in the classroom as they cultivate life skills such as project management, brainstorming and teamwork as well as research, interviewing, film making and presentation skills.

“ I’ve grown so much as a person and I can’t thank you enough for that. ” Miranda Sita, Aviation High School LEAP Student Team

“I really enjoyed watching all the students grow and seeing how the skills they learned in school were applied totally hands on -how what they are learning in school actually applies to real life and hopefully to their future careers.” Mary Ciccone-Cook, Aviation High School Teacher

“…Giving them a chance to shape the future of their lives, to be able to connect what they are doing in school with real life with real challenges, this is transformative. Thank you!” Scott McComb, Aviation High School Assistant Director
