LEAP – Welcome

LEAP

LEAP (Leadership through Education, Activities, and Personal Development), is a student leadership group comprised of student leaders from WIAA member schools throughout the state. Student representatives are involved with WIAA events, meetings and community projects, and have the unique opportunity to be the voice of Washington’s 225,000+ student-participants.

Each spring, the WIAA invites students who will be entering their JUNIOR year the following fall to apply. Eight students will be selected to join the Committee and participate throughout their junior and senior years. The application launches in the early spring and the annual deadline is MAY 31. For questions related to the LEAP Committee, please contact Andy Knapp.
