Every year, hundreds of leaders receive training from Patriot Academy. And every year that number is increasing! Through email updates, our social media, and the Patriot Press, we work to keep you informed about the impact that supporters like you are having through Patriot Academy’s work.
It’s one thing for us to tell you about the impact Patriot Academy is having, and the difference it is making in the hearts and lives of America’s leaders, but it’s another thing for us to show you.
And what better way than through the testimony of the students themselves.
What first got you interested in Patriot Academy?
A man named David Bowman came into my class and told us about Patriot Academy. After learning what Patriot Academy was about, I knew that I wanted to attend.
Was the experience what you had expected? Why or why not?
My experience at Patriot Academy was not what I have expected. Honestly I didn’t know what kind experience Patriot Academy was going to be. The experience for me was a positive one!
Has Patriot Academy changed the direction where you see your life heading?
Yes it has. Before the Academy I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do after high school. Attending Patriot Academy definitely changed the direction of where I wanted to go. It has inspired me to get involved in making a difference in the political arena and become a public servant!
What particular skills did Patriot Academy teach you that you are using today?
One of skills that Patriot Academy taught me was public speaking. It helped me better my presentation skills and get over my fear of talking in front of crowds of people.
What opportunities and/or connections came as a result of Patriot Academy?
Patriot Academy helped me become more knowledgeable on politics and made me realize the impact I could have on statewide and local elections. As a result of that, I had the opportunity to do some volunteering for a gubernatorial candidate.
What was the most important thing you learned at Patriot Academy?
The most important thing I learned was to hold onto my character and never let it go or someone may steal it from me.
