2020-2021 Leadership Sumter Class Cancelled.
Leadership Sumter is a class that is geared to help you lay the fundamental bedrock of leadership so you will be equipped to build your career and emerge as a community leader. Administrators & alumni alike know the great value in this 9 month class stems from the intensive in-person & table break-out sessions. Due to uncertainty as to whether we will be able to hold these classes face-to-face, they have been cancelled this year. Be on the look-out for registration details for 2021-2022!
