Leadership Academy

The USS Midway Museum Education Department’s Youth Leadership Academy program, currently executed in partnership with the Travis Manion Foundation and supported by the Flying Midshipmen Endowment Fund, is dedicated to teaching, and improving character development skills in our future generations.

Since the Leadership Academy piloted in 2015, hundreds of youths from the San Diego community have participated in and completed the character and leadership development curriculum.

The Leadership Academy features a day long program that takes place onboard the USS Midway and develops young adults as values-based leaders.

The Academy empowers students to develop their unique character strengths and to hone their leadership skills in order to better serve others.

The Leadership Academy program is designed for High School age groups of 16-32 youths. For more information, please contact us at youthprograms@midway.org.
