Brubaker invited to Young Leaders Summit

Jacob Brubaker, a junior at Rochester High School and son of Mark and Shelly Brubaker of Rochester, has been named one of 220 top students from around the nation chosen to participate in the Young Leaders Summit.

The Young Leaders Summit is a free college empowerment summer program for highachieving high school juniors selected through a competitive application process.

It will provide the tools they need to apply to top universities successfully, have full access to scholarship and financial aid opportunities and set a course for academic and career success.

Attendees will enhance their leadership abilities and expand their professional networks by participating in college and career workshops and interacting with college students and professionals who serve as their mentors.

The all-expense-paid trip will take place in August in Los Angeles at the University of Southern California.

Zeta Whitmer, senior at RHS and the daughter of Philip and Crista Whitmer, was chosen last year for this elite program; because a mentee of hers has been chosen for this summer, she is now invited back to serve as a student mentor to the program and will remain so for the next five years.
