Local girls invited to leadership workshops

Quinn Miller Agoura High School student Daniel Lahana has been selected to participate in the National Student Leadership Conference in July at Stanford University. The conference is a leadership development program for outstanding high school students. Lahana will be studying law and advocacy during the conference, where students attend workshops and classes to explore the distinctions of leadership.

Twelve-year-old Quinn Miller of Agoura Hills was nominated by her sixth-grade teachers at Sierra Canyon School in Chatsworth, where she is an honor roll student, to participate in the Junior National Young Leaders Conference in Washington, D.C. in July.

"The aim of the Junior National Young Leaders Conference is to inspire students to recognize their own leadership skills, measure their skills against those of current and former leaders and return home with newfound confidence in their ability to exercise positive influence within their communities," said Mike Lasday, executive director of the Congressional Youth Leadership Council.
