If I am currently a Link Leader, do I have to reapply?
Yes, all students wishing to be a Link Crew Leader must apply to be in the program regardless of whether or not you were a leader the previous year.
Do I have to submit a video?
Yes, unless you do not have internet or cell phone access at home. In this case, contact Ms. Minyard for directions on how to complete this portion of the application.
I have never had to lead a group. What if I don't know how to?
A lot of people have not been put in a situation where they are asked to stand up in front of a group and lead an activity. This is a skill that you will develop and improve over time. This program is designed to help you become more comfortable in these situations. However, you must be willing to try and to work towards becoming a better leader.
What happens after I apply?
All students will be notified via their school email regarding leader selections for the upcoming school year.
What do I have to do to apply?
Definitely go check out our "How Do I Become A Link Leader" page for full details. The purpose of the application process is to learn a bit more about you and see how you might be when working as a leader.
What if I'm really ________? I'd like to be part of a team, but I don't know if I'm a good fit.
Absolutely everyone has something to offer an incoming freshman. You might be quiet and shy, or outgoing and loud, or involved in a ton of sports, or involved in nothing, or prefer to read, or prefer to watch a video, or prefer to play video games..... the list could go on and on. The point is this: our incoming freshmen class will be made up of students just like you, who may have the same interests or characteristics that you do. We want to build a diverse team of student leaders with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences that represent the variety of the students in the freshmen class. So we encourage EVERYONE to apply. There is no such thing as a cookie cutter Link Leader.
