Student Vision for Dayton Community Kickoff

The Kick-Off will be held at the downtown Dayton Metro Library branch at 215 E. Third Street. Refreshments will be provided.

As announced last September at the Mayor’s Youth Summit, the City of Dayton in partnership with Learn to Earn Dayton is embarking on the city’s first-ever Student Vision for the Future of Dayton. The Student Vision will serve as a roadmap for creating an ongoing platform for young people to have a prominent role in shaping priorities that affect them.
During this event, community members, students, families, youth serving organizations will learn more about the Student Vision for Dayton and opportunities to get involved, hear directly from participating students, discuss the core priority areas of focus, and meet partners involved.
Guests will enjoy welcome remarks from Mayor Mims and L2ED CEO Stacy Schweikhart, followed by an overview of the initiative, student testimonials, a mini data walk and insights into the results of the student survey, facilitated discussion, and opportunities for future involvement.
Adults — teachers, caregivers, or interested community members — are encouraged to attend the Community Kick-Off to learn more about the work and play a role in encouraging future teen engagement. After the Community Kick-Off, L2ED will host a series of listening sessions specific to teens from across the city.
These information and engagement sessions serve as the foundation for a three year partnership between the City of Dayton and Learn to Earn Dayton to better engage area teens and empower them to lift their voice in creating a Student Vision for Dayton.
