Virtual NSLI-Y Fall 2022 Application

Deadline to Apply: Thursday, June 30, 2022, 4 P.M. U.S. Eastern Time

Several of our students have done or are doing this program - definitely worth applying for if you are interested in another language! The Virtual National Security Language Initiative for Youth (Virtual NSLI-Y) application is now available! Virtual NSLI-Y, a program of the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, provides U.S. high school students with a beginner-level foreign language and culture experience.

Eligible U.S. high school students can apply to Virtual NSLI-Y Fall 2022 to study Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), Hindi, Korean, Russian, or Turkish. Selected finalists will receive a merit scholarship to study the target language and associated culture(s) in live, online classes with peers from across the U.S. for 10 weeks in September – November 2022!

Virtual NSLI-Y program participants who meet eligibility requirements may still apply for NSLI-Y summer and academic year programs.

Congratulations to 2022-23 SOS Ambassador Team

We had over 30 applications for 9 spots on the Secretary of State Ambassador Team representing Student Leadership Johns Creek. This was not an easy decision. Those of you in the class of 2024 who were not named are eligible to apply next year.

Please know that everyone will have plenty of opportunities to shine and volunteer in other aspects of our program - don't feel badly if you weren't named, you're all very special to us in SLJC and this truly was not an easy decision.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at our SLJC Kickoff Event on August 6th!

Class of 2023 - IF YOUR T-SHIRT SIZE HAS CHANGED FROM LAST YEAR, LET MRS. SANDERS KNOW NO LATER THAN 6-7!
