The Duke of Edinburgh Program is an internationally recognized award that promotes excellence in young people, through the pursuit of interests and giving back to the community. The DoE Award gives youth an opportunity to progress outside their comfort zone, and gain leadership experience. The Award looks amazing on resumes and job applications, as well as giving the recipient up to six high school credits. It also provides the recipients a sense of accomplishment and pride. If you are interested in this program, please see Ms. Gribling in the office.
