🎉 Celebrating Our Atlas Leaders! 🎉
Please join us in congratulating Mr. Mena, Assistant Principal at Atlas Elementary, and Mrs. Burgos, our incredible Front Office Manager, for completing the Adelante Leadership Institute Class of 2025! 👏
The Adelante Leadership Institute (ALI) is a 10-month program that develops a pipeline of qualified Latino, Latina, and underrepresented leaders prepared to serve on nonprofit boards, commissions, and in executive and civic leadership roles. Through professional development, mentorship, and civic engagement, ALI empowers leaders to make a lasting impact in the Pikes Peak region.
Thanks to Joe Aldaz, President and CEO of the Colorado Springs Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, for leading this important program.
We are so proud of these two dedicated Atlas team members for their commitment to leadership, equity, and community impact, values that reflect the very heart of Atlas Schools. 💙💛
