Powell Leadership program is all about teamwork, leadership and building character.\u00a0\u00a0Though we attempted to coordinate a visit with\u00a0\u00a0General Powell at the school, his schedule did not permit it.<\/p>\n<p>The values General Powell is known for, are the tenets of the work happening in the Colin L. Powell Leadership Academy, with its commitment to teaching its students about character, social responsibility, teamwork and selfless service to the community combined with achievement, leadership and American heritage to help cadets realize the power of their potential.<\/p>\n<p>General Powell has left a continuing legacy at General Colin L. Powell Leadership Academy, in this tuition free public school program with its great education and rich experiences.\u00a0\u00a0As the first African-American Secretary of State, General Powell is a strong example to students in a program, that serves largely students of color, that their future is theirs to create.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13628,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13627","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-banaadir-academy","category-banaadir-elementary"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Legacy of leadership &#060;
