One of the unique aspects of The Stelladaur Academy is the opportunity for young people 12-19 years of age to be featured in "Youth T.I.P. Interviews" with S.L. Whyte. In this forum, available only to registered teachers and students, youth share their own Transformation In Progress in relation to projects, events and accomplishments they have pursued in their homes, schools and communities. Each interview focuses on one of the 12 Character Concepts in the curriculum: Kindness, Respect, Health, Creativity, Intelligence, Honesty, Gratitude, Affirmation, Forgiveness, Hope, Resolute Strength, Stillness.
The purpose of these interviews is three-fold. First, we want to give youth who may not have been previously recognized for their talents and positive contributions to society, an opportunity to share and shine. Secondly, to provide a forum where young people can learn from their peers. And finally, to create an environment where youth can develop peer-based role models who reflect the mission of The Stelladaur Academy and the ability to inspire other youth to recognize their own innate greatness.
Applications for interviews will be available to all registered students after opening day in March. If you would like to recommend someone for an interview, please email info@stelladauracademy.org with "Youth Interview" in the subject line. We are particularly looking for the often unrecognized youth heroes who "pay it forward" with simple acts of goodness and kindness that have helped to change lives. We also welcome stories of youth who have facilitated large-scale projects that reflect the mission of The Stelladaur Academy. www.stelladauracademy.org
