Hubbard High School students Taylor Rodgers and Lilian Boone participated in the Tressel Institute’s 2026 Summer Leadership Institute at Youngstown State University.

Taylor and Lilian joined 24 rising juniors and seniors from 16 school districts across the Mahoning Valley for the free, three-day leadership experience.

Throughout the program, students explored servant leadership, identified their personal values and leadership styles, practiced teamwork and communication, set SMART goals, and learned more about college and career opportunities.

The students also took part in a campus scavenger hunt, team-building activities at the Andrews Student Recreation and Wellness Center, and a community service project through United Way’s Saturday of Caring.

We are proud to recognize Taylor and Lilian for representing Hubbard High School at this year’s Summer Leadership Institute.
