"I loved doing this program and would do it again in a heartbeat…this course has not only changed me but also gave me an experience I will always remember." Self Evaluation by a SILC student
  • The Senior Instructional Leadership Corps (SILC) is a leadership program that allows seniors to work closely with a teacher as an assistant in the classroom. SILC students attend their SILC class in a full or half block, depending on their schedule, and assist in whatever classroom activities the mentor teacher considers appropriate. SILC students must have completed the course in which they assist at the same level or above.

    They must also attend monthly workshops conducted by the SILC coordinator during the first semester. These workshops help students become effective assistants and role models in the

    SILC classroom while developing their leadership skills; each workshop includes a written assignment. Students can choose to be a SILC during first semester or for the entire year.

    In order to apply to SILC, please talk with a teacher who you'd be interested in working with.  Complete this form by Friday, March 15th (the end of 3rd quarter).

    If you have any questions about the SILC program, please contact Mr. David Heineman, SILC coordinator, at heinemad@nths.net
