Esko Leads

Did you know that we have a leadership and service learning program for students in grades 5-7?

Esko Leads is a group that strives to inspire and educate teens to discover the leader within themselves. In this group, students will work together to find out who they are and what they can achieve, now and in the future. Our priority as a group is to work with local citizens and organizations to benefit our schools, homes and communities through service learning.

Some projects we worked on in 2025-26:

• We helped carve pumpkins and set up the jack-o-lantern walk in the school forest. 
• We held a food drive for the Cloquet salvation army.
• We helped raised donations for our area's Best Christmas Ever Campaign.  
• We helped to organize and host the Esko Winterfest Fest.
• We made tie-blankets to share with area animal rescue organizations. 
• We shared our appreciation for our teachers by decorating the lounges. 

Price includes a gratitude journal and Esko Leads t-shirt, designed by the group!  

Registration will close 9/21/26 at noon.
