Nominations are now being accepted for NC State's College of Education Leadership Institute for Future Teachers (LIFT), which will take place Sunday - Thursday, June 14 – 18, 2020.
LIFT is a five-day, residential program for students of color and bilingual students who are rising high school seniors in North Carolina interested in leadership development and exploring a career in education. The program will be held on NC State’s campus with all expenses paid except for travel to and from Raleigh.
LIFT students will have the opportunity to:
Engage in intensive and innovative on-campus activities
Interact with statewide leaders in education
Enhance communication and leadership skills to be competitive for statewide and national scholarships
Develop friendships with like-minded high school students across the state
Be mentored by current NC State students who will serve as program co-facilitators
Receive ongoing encouragement and support after the program through digital engagement
In order to participate in LIFT, students must be nominated by a high school counselor, teacher, principal, or parent. They can also self-nominate. If you know any students who could benefit from this opportunity, please nominate them by or before February 21 using one of the online nomination forms linked on the LIFT website.
