On Friday, Feb. 15, members of the Boulder Day Country Day Middle School student council and other rising middle school leaders traveled to Chicago to attend the LEAD Conference.
Alongside hundreds of students from across the nation, the BCD students attended a variety of presentations by keynote speakers and breakout sessions focusing on different topics related to leadership.
"Chicago was great,” Charlie Bickham, BCD MS student council president, said. “We all gained insight and learned how to be great leaders at BCD. Rather than learning how to create better fundraisers and write more proposals like we expected, we were taught how to be better people, which leads us to become better leaders."
