Because of LEAP »

Because of LEAP, I am more disciplined because I must fulfill the responsibilities of being a LEAP counselor and a student. The kids in my group remind me what is silly and fun about life, which is helpful in contrast to the seriousness of student life and academics. Because of LEAP, I am aware of what is important and valuable to me and how to achieve these things. "
