Middle School Leadership Council

Tuesdays beginning Nov 11
Hosted by: 4Front & JCC

Middle School Leadership Council (MSLC), now powered by 4Front, helps teens discover their leadership potential in a fun, engaging, and supportive community! Meeting twice a month on Tuesday evenings, MSLC meetings are filled with games, immersive activities, expert speakers and more, designed to help middle schoolers explore different aspects of leadership in fun and interactive ways. Teens then put that learning into practice as they plan social events, holiday celebrations and service days for the greater middle school community. The council will even join together for an unforgettable MSLC retreat in the spring.

There’s so much in store for MSLC this year and now with 4Front’s resources and expertise, it’s going to be our best year yet!  Make new friends, have fun, give back and learn to lead with MSLC!  

Register today and join our full MSLC Launch on Tuesday, November 11!

Magnet High School Audition Workshop

Monday, Nov 24
Hosted by: JCC CTPC
Does Your Student Want to  Audition for an Arts Magnet School?
We want to help your students feel confident and prepared for their next chapter! In this constructive setting designed for your children to perform their best, students will present their audition pieces and receive constructive feedback from a panel of arts educators, including the J’s own Ms. Adrienne and Ms. Emily. They’ll also get to ask current and former BSA and Carver students questions and learn what to expect from both the audition process and daily life at an arts-focused school.
Students must come memorized with their audition piece or a song/monologue that they’d like to have critiqued. No accompanist will be provided. Feedback will be offered in the room and each panel member will supply scoring sheets afterwards as well.
Please note that this event is not sponsored by any of the surrounding magnet schools. Rather, it is an opportunity for your student to perform in front of a panel similar to their upcoming placement evaluation and receive constructive feedback to help strengthen their preparation. We will not be discussing the specific requirements for students auditioning at each school.

Appreciation

Hannah P.

I was interested in joining PLF to be able to connect with other Jewish teens, since there aren’t a lot at my school. My participation has taught me that reaching out to people I don’t necessarily know that well or are friends with doesn’t have to be something bad or nerve racking. In fact most people are extremely willing to help and it brought a sense of community that made me really happy.

The Social Innovation Fellowship was an overall great experience. I learned many new skills that I will use later in life. I also made new friends and was able to connect with the community and my Judaism through the program.

I’m happy to say I’m learning and growing as a parent of two teens, with 4Front’s support. Thank you for offering this pertinent network during this critical time in all of our lives.
