Last week, our LEAD staff traded classrooms for Adventure Bootcamp, working through challenges that asked us to lean on each other and communicate in new ways. We built trust and teamwork that carry straight back into our classrooms and hallways.

Our students get the best of us because we take care of each other too 💙

For more than two decades, LEAD students have been learning how to walk into a room and own it, with help from the people at PGIM.
From the pearl-and-tie ceremony to mock interviews to a Graduate Success Closet stocked with professional clothing, this partnership has shaped how our students see themselves and their futures.

On Monday, students closed out this summer's Impress 4 Success program with mock job interviews and a certification ceremony.

For four weeks, students worked through everything from professional attire, resume writing, and interview etiquette to this final round, where they put it all into practice in front of a panel. They shook hands with confidence and spoke clearly about their strengths, showing the groundwork that goes into one of life's most important experiences. Every student who completed the program received a certificate and real-world skills that lead to success beyond LEAD.

The program was led by Jay'Lin Thomas (Jay-T) and Prince Johnson, both with the Family Support Program in the Youth Department at the New Jersey Community Research Initiative (NJCRI), alongside LEAD Social Worker Nicole Ballard.

Thanks to NJCRI's Family Support Program for your partnership this summer!

If it's Friday, it's Orientation Day!

We had a packed room for our first orientation session for LEAD's Fall 2026/27 applicants.

They learned what LEAD is about, both the expectations of our students and the opportunities they receive through the school.

We can't wait to welcome our new class in the fall!

"We really do live different lives, and we're so similar at the end of the day." 💙

For Cheyenne, LEAD was more than just a school. It was the place where she finally found her people and felt like she could be herself.

If you're looking for a school where you actually belong, we might be the place for you. Enrollment is open for fall 2026.

How does a solar panel actually get from a blueprint to a rooftop? Our newest Solar Installation cohort is finding out. This week, they're in the classroom learning to design, engineer, and measure before they ever set foot on a job site. Stay tuned for what comes next. 🌞
