We started in the fall of 2016 using a program provided by Toastmasters International called Youth Leadership Program. We recommend taking a look! It’s a time tested 8-week class ‘in the arts of communication and leadership.’ Each student uses a 36-page booklet. Each week they focus on a different skill. It was a great spring board for our Adventures in Public Speaking for Kids!
