ULP is back! 🙌

We had such a fun night welcoming our middle and high school students back to the Urban Leadership Project! It was great reconnecting, catching up, and kicking off another year together.

We’re also excited that it was our new Middle School Coordinator, Jeff’s, first night leading our middle school students! We’re grateful to have Jeff on the Oaks team and excited to see the relationships that grow this year.

It’s going to be a great year at ULP! 🌳

📚👟 Bringing books to life at Walton Oaks!

Our students have been reading Holes by Louis Sachar and brought the story off the page by designing their own shoes! We love combining reading with hands-on activities that encourage creativity and make learning fun. 🎨📖

Our students are cooking up something special!

Through our Culinary Arts Club in partnership with the_jnsa, students from our Walton Oaks and Walton Green Adventure Centers are learning new skills and discovering the creativity involved in preparing food.

A special thank you to Chef Sarah from Fifth & Finch for joining us and teaching the students how to make their own pizzas!

We’re grateful for community partners who help us introduce students to new experiences and possibilities. ❤️
