Students representing 29 area high schools visited the Trinity Valley Community College Athens campus Saturday to participate in the Leaders of Tomorrow Conference presented by Phi Theta Kappa.
Each student was selected to participate based on his or her exhibition of leadership qualities in the classroom, on the athletic field or in the community. A number of the students represented their local chapters of student government or the National Honor Society.
TVCC Phi Theta Kappa advisor Nancy Long said the conference not only aimed to build the participants into stronger leaders, but to encourage them to become servant-leaders by learning about leadership styles.
The students participated in team-building activities, a personality assessment and were presented with an award at the conclusion of the conference.
