There are very few life changing experiences offered to high school students. When Alabama HOBY invited four Tallapoosa County Schools students to attend its seminar, they took on the opportunity despite uncertainty.
HOBY is a weekend-long leadership seminar aimed at inviting rising juniors to learn about what it means to be a leader. Held at Troy University, students heard from speakers inspiring and teaching them about leadership, completed service leadership projects and connected with other students from around the state.
