Student Summits

Student to Student (S2S) summits are one-day, professionally facilitated, multi-school, student training events focused on building strong program foundations using the S2S six core values: Leadership, Academics, Service, Climate and Culture, Relationships, and 100% Acceptance.

S2S programs are for all three school levels: high school, middle/junior high school, and elementary school.

MCEC offers initial program and enhancement trainings.

  • Trainings are on-site experiences including 6 hours of facilitated engagement.

  • Only adults and upper-level students attend elementary school training.
  • MCEC provides trainers, resources, supplies, and training.
