working in the True Leader Model curriculum, team-building
activities, daily affirmations, and a local exposure trip from

MILA Extended-Day Academy
(After school)
Our Extended-Day Academy aims to provide academic
support, positive reinforcement, scholar assessment, and
recreation to help scholars excel scholastically,
socially, and spiritually.

Our goal is to help close the achievement gaps in a safe,
supportive, and stable environment.

This is a capstone program for all three cohorts in our 3-year
leadership development experience. It's designed for 7th,
8th, and 9th-grade scholars and runs Monday to Friday from
9:00am to 4:00pm for the entire month of June.

The program includes breakfast, True Leader Model
curriculum, daily affirmations, lunch, team-building activities,
free time, and exposure trips. Additionally, we offer a
progressive exposure experience of local, national, and
international travel during the summer.

MIla Evolving Leaders
Academy
Evolving Leaders Academy is a year-round initiative offered
exclusively to scholars who graduate from MILA at the end
of their 9th grade year. Designed to serve as a touchpoint
for ongoing leadership development through 12th grade.

The program features transformative leadership-building
weekend retreats, community service projects, peer-
led discussions, and continued exposure/enrichment
experiences. It ensures that scholars remain connected to
MILA's mission throughout high school, fostering personal
and professional growth.
