All this week, Brittany has been in a leadership program sponsored by the City of Aurora. This “Aurora Leadership Institute” was held at the Illinois Math and Science Academy and taught them all kinds of leadership skills such as:
- Ethics
- Teambuilding
- Communication
- Relationship Building
- Team Dynamics
- Values
- Service
Today Brittany graduated from the program and was honored by the Mayor of Aurora for her achievements. We attended the graduation ceremony where she got her diploma. We found out that this is the first one held and from the positive experience that came out of it, they hope to do this in many years to come.

Congratulations Brittany! She was in the program with a friend from Still (and fellow track team member) Katie Benson. It was good for her to have another friend with her. After the graduation ceremony, we treated them to frosties at Wendy’s on our way home. 🙂
