This summer, Graham Henkle and Elsa Page from Vinton, and Caroline Erickson from Garrison, joined outstanding students from across the nation to take part in a unique academic and career oriented development experience, National Youth Leadership Forum (NYLF): Explore STEM, taking place this summer at Loyola University in Chicago, Illinois.
NYLF Explore STEM is one of the Envision family of programs (www.envisionexperience.com) that enable students to explore their interests and experience learning beyond the classroom. The students were nominated by their ELP teacher, Jeff Mangold, and will begin their freshman year at Vinton Shellsburg High School this fall.
Graham is active in sports, band and the Vinton Presbyterian Church youth group. During middle school, he competed on First Lego League robotics and Future City teams. He aspires to one day have a career in Engineering.

Elsa enjoys dance, choir, theater, and trap shooting. She has participated in College for Kids, Future City and First Lego League. Elsa is interested in the medical field.
Caroline is actively involved in school plays, the Garrison Library, and St. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Garrison. In middle school, she competed in First Lego League robotics, Future City, and Battle of the Books. Her goal is to one day be a civil engineer and travel to third world countries to help improve their infrastructure.
“NYLF Explore STEM is a great opportunity for high-achieving scholars to get outside the classroom and see, through hands-on interactive learning, how to innovate and think creatively,” said Andrew Potter, the Chief Academic Officer for Envision. “These students, who have already proven themselves academically, will be challenged to work on real-world, student-created projects to bring their studies and career interests to life.”
Since 1985, Envision programs have served more than 800,000 students in more than 145 countries, with programs designed to help students develop the leadership, scholarship and career skills needed to succeed in today’s competitive college and career landscape.
