The ELC Leadership Academy at Hopkinton Middle School has officially closed! Congratulations to all 8th grade students who committed their lives to becoming positive leaders for the last three weeks!  Your dedication, energy and growth is to be commended.  On behalf of the entire ELC Teaching Staff, current ELC members, and the ELC founding students, I welcome you all into our special Club! It is a way of life in which we live as positive leaders, take control of our own attitudes, and continually work to serve and positively empower others. The road of positive leadership doesn’t stop here, it begins here.  ELC as many people in your life as you can, don’t forget to ELC yourself once in a while, and post your stories by clicking here.

Enjoy Life!

On behalf of the entire Enjoy Life Club Team, we would like to say congratulations to all the students at Vauban for completing the ELC Leadership Academy and graduating to become our newest members of the Enjoy Life Club!  You were an incredible group of students, full of energy, and open minded to a new way of thinking about yourself and others.  Your control of the english language is exeptional and all 120 of you showed courage in taking this chance, working hard to understand and learn,  and growing as a result!  You can have a great impact on yourselves and your school so live life to the fullest and continue to be positive leaders.  If you inspire and motivate the people around you the way you did to the ELC, your school and community will reach new levels!

To the teachers and parents, “The Dream Team”, all I can say is, AMAZING!  You truly epitomize what it means to be positive leaders and we are so thankful for your sacrifice and dedication to making this leadership education experience possible. If you ever need a holiday, come to The U.S.A. and you will always have an open spot to teach and change lives at the Leadership Academy.

Lastly, thank you to Marc Duplantier and his family for making this entire experience possible!  You are who we want to be more like in our lives. Thank you for dedicating your life to the betterment of the students and for being a positive leader to the ELC. We will follow you anywhere!

Our New ELC Members!

The ELC wants to extend it’s congratulations for the more than 100 grade 8 students who graduated from the Leadership Academy!  Those students have now been initiated into the Enjoy Life Club and our newest members, armed with the core values, attributes and attitudes of positive leadership (and ELC orange shirts), are generating awesome and tangible cultural improvements  in their school!  We are thrilled, inspired and humbled to have worked with such a motivated, insightful and courageous group of people.  They earned their membership in the Enjoy Life Club and we empower them to wear their bracelets with pride!
