🚀 Exciting Achievement! 🚀
Blake Clark, Cadet Ensign Claremore NJROTC, has successfully attended and completed the prestigious 2024 Four Star Leadership program with General Tommy Franks! Held from July 7-12, this world-class summer leadership program equipped Blake with invaluable skills to maximize his leadership potential. He was one of 70 students selected for this elite camp, amongst hundreds of applicants.🏆
Blake faced practical leadership and ethical scenarios during the program, participating in a persuasive speech and writing competition, and an Ethics Bowl. These challenges emphasized constructive criticism, cooperation, and communication.
Blake also earned scholarships, gained internships, and acquired invaluable leadership experience, setting a strong foundation for his college journey and early career. Four Star Leadership has a proven track record since 2008, welcoming over 900 U.S. high school students from 49 states and 61 international students, working with leaders from various fields.
