High School Leadership Awards
The awards recognize the region’s high school students who embody Widener’s commitment to develop and inspire leaders who affect positive change.
Next Steps
Principals and administrators in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware are encouraged to nominate one current high school junior who exhibits strong leadership skills, academic excellence, and exceptional character by completing the HSLA Nomination Form. The deadline to submit a nomination is Friday, December 16, 2022.
Leadership and a commitment to foster positive change in the school and community can be shown through activities such as taking a leadership role in extracurricular activities, volunteering for a purpose, and/or demonstrating an intentional positive influence on their peers and associates.
Only one high school junior in good academic standing is eligible to be nominated from each school. Students may be nominated even if the school does not calculate GPA. Principals and administrators must submit the Principal Nomination Form.
If you have been formally nominated, the awards committee will contact you and provide instructions for you to complete your student application form.
Once you receive confirmation of your nomination, you must complete the student application form below. The deadline for the student application form is Friday, January 13, 2023.
Additional information to RSVP for the 2023 High School Leadership Awards event will be available by February 1.
