Who are Link Leaders?
Link Leaders are junior and senior Kadets who volunteer as mentors and friends to new students. They build connections starting on the first day of school that last throughout high school. From community events to one-on-one mentoring, Link Leaders are there to make others feel welcomed.
How do Link Leaders benefit Air Academy?
Link Leaders reach out to 8th Graders at the end of the school year to welcome them to Air Academy. Starting on the first day of school, Link Leaders ensure the transition to Air Academy is smooth and positive. Then throughout the year, Link Leaders host community events to bring Kadets closer together. From hot chocolate gatherings to "Trunk or Treat", these Kadets bring the whole school together to bond.
