I am aware that my child is applying for the 8th grade Junior Leadership Orange Program. If selected, I understand that we must attend a Family Informational Session scheduled over the summer months (you will be given two dates and times to choose from.) In order to participate, my child will miss SEVEN days of school over the course of a year, and any work missed while taking part in this program must be made up. This is a participatory program and youth are expected to be ACTIVE participants, taking part in conversations, interactive games, etc. Please note that any youth completing this application who will not be in 8th grade in the fall of 2025 will automatically not be considered for the program.
The Junior Leadership Orange Program is primarily funded through donations received from private donors, community groups and business leaders. While there is NO COST to participate in the program, we do ask the current JLO Class to participate in one annual fundraiser. Participation not only helps to raise additional funds, it also reinforces what an integral part the current class continues to play in the success of future Junior Leadership Orange classes.
Any special needs, allergies or medical concerns must be communicated at the time of registration. If your child has special dietary needs, you must provide their own meals and snacks. If your child needs medication on hand during sessions, please provide that medication with a dated & signed Physician’s note. Provided medication will be secured in a locked box and transported with your child throughout the day for use as needed or designated.
Note: Youth must be able to self-administer medication.
