Florida Leadership Organization Expands High School Programs

Student ACES

Student ACES, a Florida-based nonprofit organization dedicated to providing leadership opportunities for high school students, announced today that it has expanded its program offerings. The organization focuses on inspiring, training and mentoring a community of students who exemplify leadership traits in athletics, community service and education. Student ACES will now be offering three programs to high school students during the 2017-2018 school year, including:

  • Student ACES Year-Long Program: The organization will accept 400 students into the ACE year-long program, which is offered in Palm Beach and Broward Counties. This program is provided to students from public and private high schools and consists of six classes and a community project. Student ACES is expanding its program from the current offering at FAU Boca Raton to three locations: FAU Boca Raton, FAU Jupiter and "The Glades."
  • Captain's Summits: The organization will train and certify more than 2,500 potential team captains. Captains' training is designed specifically for high school athletic captains to learn leadership skills, techniques and life lessons that will enable them to lead each of their teams on and off the field.
  • Leadership Workshops: Student ACES will certify and train more than 1,500 students in one-day leadership workshops. These workshops are developed for athletes who are interested in learning and applying leadership techniques. Workshops allow Student ACES to partner with schools, universities, training facilities, camps and individual teams to address the specific needs of each organization, such as sportsmanship, team chemistry, overcoming adversity and developing a winning attitude.

Student ACES was founded to create a unique pathway for deserving high school student-athletes in order to achieve the highest standards of leadership by instilling these core values, which are incorporated into each training program:

Command Respect
Earn the Trust of Others
Lead through your Actions
Demonstrate Ethical Behavior and Stand up for what is Right
Possess a Work Ethic that is Second to None

The Art of Sacrifice
Show Humility and Integrity
Support your fellow Student ACES

Student ACES is overseen by an advisory committee comprised of more than 50 local and national leaders, including CEOs, military officers, college presidents, coaches and many other nationally acclaimed individuals, as well as a local board of directors.
