Three students from Regina Dominican High School who attended the Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA) program this year shared their experiences and insights. The students were introduced by Regina Dominican's Leadership Institute Director Julie Konigsberger. We heard first-hand from three of the four students we sponsored for the RYLA program. Carina Montoya (rising senior), Vee Deanda-Medina (rising junior) and Francesca Montaya (rising sophomore) each told us about their time at RYLA. A common theme was leadership and how there are multiple ways to lead. RYLA provided opportunities for the young women to have a deeper understanding of themselves and their unique leadership styles. The students showed a short video (which they created) of various RYLA activities at the camp. Our club has sponsored many students over the years, and will continue to send students to this amazing leadership weekend.
