All Students Welcome!
OASL programs positively impact and elevate student leaders in all organizations, clubs, athletic teams, and school groups. Program content is relevant across contexts, helping all students learn to serve, connect, and inspire their peers, families, schools, communities, and the world.
OASL has been offering summer leadership workshops since 1953. Our 5-day workshops will include a balance of hands-on activities and discussions along with personal growth and reflection opportunities. Students continue to rave about hallmark workshop activities including small council groups, team-building activities, large group sessions, our Ohio IMPACT session with local leaders, service learning and informal opportunities for students to connect 1-on-1 with each other. We will continue to build on conversations and action planning regarding equity in our schools

OASL Summer Workshop is for ANY student leader! OASL delegates strive to set a positive example for others, are open minded, take positive risks, have the courage to speak up and try to make their school or community a better and more equitable place for others.

Many teachers, advisors and counselors send their newly elected students in their student organization to OASL Summer Leadership Workshop to give the new executive board a chance to bond and prepare for the upcoming year. This is a great opportunity for students to network with others from across Ohio to gather new ideas and hit the ground running. Even if a student isn't in an elected leadership position, this is a perfect opportunity to develop young leaders so they are prepared!
