I was a member of the Plano Youth Leadership class this year, and it has left a profound impact on my life despite it being cut short due to COVID-19. Thank you for opening my eyes to all aspects of my community, and teaching me how to be a successful leader while still being myself. Through this program, I made many friends across Plano that share my motivation to lead and be involved in my community, which is at times, hard for me to find in some people my own age. Thank you for putting so much time and effort into such an amazing experience for teenagers like me who want to do something important for the world around them, by expanding our horizons, teaching us how to lead, and to be ourselves in leadership positions. I have become so much more confident in my ability to lead people, whether it’s a project at school, an organization I am a part of, or even among my friends. This program made me see the opportunities that lie in front of me, and that I can seize them if I work hard and apply the numerous skills I learned this year.Thank you so much for this astounding opportunity,Emma Coleman, Class 25
