Jones High School

JHS Juniors see information about West Point’s Summer Leaders Experience (SLE). At West Point we develop Leaders of Character, and we are looking for high-achieving young people who are in great standing with their school and community, and who want to challenge themselves. Please see the attached flyer to share with your students, educators, and parents! What is SLE? SLE is a one-week program for current Juniors (High School Class of 2025) to visit West Point in June. Students in this program get to spend the week with our cadets, live in the barracks, and eat in the mess hall. Learn about West Point’s world class academics by trying 5 of our 17 academic workshops. Learn about military training and becoming a Leader of Character at West Point by completing two military days to include rappelling, Zodiac boats, combatives (like Jiu-Jitsu) training and more! Challenge themselves physically by attempting the Candidate Fitness Assessment, conducting physical training, and sports. Complete their admissions interview with a cadet. Spend the week making friends with other students from all over the US who are applying to West Point. All the students that I have spoken with have really enjoyed this program and they especially enjoy interacting with the cadets. Your students may sign up for this program now by using the QR code in the attached “2024 SLE FLYER” or directly at westpoint.edu. Our priority application deadline for SLE is the following Friday on March 15th and we will accept applications until April 15th. SLE is competitive and not all who apply are offered to attend.
