The UFL program is designed to actively engage adolescents in the development of character, ethics, and civility as well as to develop young citizen leaders. UFL utilizes hands-on learning activities, mentoring experiences, intentional relationship-building, and community service to:

• Guide youth in building knowledge, skills, and abilities (competencies)
• Motivate students to effectively lead themselves and others
• Promote healthy personal development and positive engagement with the community

Youth Leadership Development

The afterschool program experience equips young adolescents with leadership skills such as communication, problem-solving, ethical decision-making, and goal-setting. Each participant takes an active role in their learning and leadership journey. Sharpening these skills can help them navigate adolescence today while preparing to solve the world’s problems tomorrow.

We are thrilled about the new school year and working with Upland Heights families! Information letters and sign-up instructions will be provided to 5th grade families by your child's homeroom teacher.

UFL meets after school on Wednesdays till 4:30pm. Sessions will begin in October and resume in January 2027. 

Participants will have the opportunity to build relationships with trained, Texas Tech students. Additionally, the various leadership sessions will help them grow their confidence and the Brainy Bite Project will support participant agency when making food choices and helping them thrive in the classroom and in life.
