Welcome to the Presidential Leadership Institute

The Presidential Leadership Institute is designed for groups of 4-6 high school students accompanied by a minimum of one 

advisor on the beautiful campus of York University in York, Nebraska.  The program is designed for high potential students in grades 10-12.  

The institute offers an intensive experience to grow individual student leaders, provide the framework for each student group to 

make a positive impact in their school, and offer professional development for sponsors in attendance.

The program size is limited to 50 students and priority is given to schools currently in the National Christian School Association. 

If your school has an interest in participating, you are encouraged to contact us to determine if there is room in 

this year's program for your students. 

Next year's tentative date is July 12-18, 2026.  

PLI is a collaboration led by Strata Leadership, LLC , York University , People to People International, Kimray, Inc.

 and the National Christian School Association.
