What is Championeers! Leadership Club
Championeers! is a dynamic after-school program that teaches leadership and character education to children through the performing arts. Championeers! is built on the premise that if a child is inspired to dream, encouraged to believe, and empowered to 'become,' their potential is limitless.
What do Championeers! do?
Championeers! is a character-focused, leadership-based, performing arts program that builds confidence, self-esteem and individual value. Each week students receive vocal, dance and drama instruction while incorporating a character trait that is then applied to weekly challenges and assignments. In addition, leadership opportunities inspire students as they work towards a school benefit project that reflects the themed unit of their performing arts production. Their project may address a physical need such as playground equipment or a campus culture need such as an anti-bullying campaign. By combining the arts with a cause, students internalize the core concepts of value and honor that are incorporated into the production. Both the project and production are presented to their peers by the Championeers! Leadership Club at the end of each semester.
How is Championeers! funded?
The National Amer-I-Can Education Initiative Grant provides up to $100,000 in tuition-waiver scholarships, training, support materials, and cash funding for the Championeers! Leadership Club Project. The award includes additional training and support materials for teachers and administrators to utilize our powerful presentations as a spring board for school wide challenges. These materials can be incorporated into classroom culture and award assemblies. Resources include weekly classroom character lessons, that participating students can assist in demonstrating, character promotional posters, banners, and short weekly video clips featuring the Championeers! mascot "Captain Cappy," and his inspiring sidekicks.
Why is Championeers! so successful?
Many other character education programs teach theories through posters and classroom discussions. Unfortunately children often hear the words without internalizing the concepts. In fact, research shows that students retain only about 10% of what they are told. Championeers!, however, uses innovative teaching methods that are nearly 10 times more effective, with close to 100% information retention. Championeers! creates an environment for children to experience, and then model, the values of honor, innovation, excellence and integrity, all while singing and dancing.
