I. For High School Students
Breakout 1 High School: From Boy To Male To Man
Maturing into a successful man in today's society is very complex. How
do we succeed and change for the better. We are receiving many different
messages on what makes a person successful, respectful, and valued. We
will share inside tips on how to achieve success, from bringing your "A"
game (the right Attitude), to knowing how to "dress to impress, to
working effectively with those who can grant or deny you "major
opportunities." Come learn what they don't tell you in school!
II. For Middle School Students

and Social Issues Associated with of Middle School Boys
Trying to fit into a clique, peer pressure, adult
pressure, media pressure, body and mind changing beyond your control;

grades affect my future.
