Leadership development is a key feature of ECI. Take part in exciting leadership opportunities at every grade level. Grade 9's can apply to our LofT - Leaders of Tomorrow program and start to develop the skills, experiences and a portfolio in order to become school leaders in their senior years of high school. They will make new friends and learn what it is like to be part of a dynamic, supportive high school. Grade 10 students participate in an overnight camp experience for a week of skill development and friendship building with student leaders from Grades 11 & 12 - an experience not to be missed!
Our Leadership programs support diversity at ECI and build a foundation for school spirit. Self-esteen, teamwork, positive attitudes and memories to last a lifetime are built under the guidance of teaching staff and senior student mentors. In addition to a regular course load, students will commit to 100 hours of related community service in a field; participate in a mandatory minimum number of plenary sessions around the focus they choose; participate in mandatory leadership roles in extra-curricular activities. Upon completion of the four-year program, students will receive the ECI Leadership Diploma, with an addendum to the transcript that goes beyond their academic accomplishments to include all aspects of their ECI education.
