Commencement 2021
Confirmed date/time: Wednesday, June 16th, 2pm
1st Battalion North Parking Lot (by the ramp to the field)
WLA is planning on holding a traditional style commencement ceremony for the graduating class of 2021. Currently, we are anticipating only allowing four family members per graduate and we are anticipating requiring masks/face coverings at the event for all attendees. We will keep everyone updated via email and our website as the event draws closer, as state and local guidance may change.

Pre-Enrollment
If you are interested in enrolling your student at Willamette Leadership Academy (WLA), please click the button below to fill out our "pre-enrollment" form, which will help us get to know you a bit and will put you in our pool of possible future Cadets. A WLA staff member will then either contact you to discuss enrollment or email you a link to our full enrollment form.
Completion of the pre-enrollment form does not guarantee enrollment. Space in the academy is limited. Returning students, siblings, and students from the Springfield Public Schools district will receive priority.
Our 2 day Hybrid Instruction model for BOTH Battalions begins Monday, April 19. Please check your email for updates, bus times and schedules.
IMPORTANT!
Beginning Monday April 12 the River Road LTD bus stop will no longer be used. Instead, we will use the parking lot in front of Edgewater Home Furnishings on Division Avenue just north of the Beltline.
Cadets should wait in front of the Edgewater Home Furnishing store.
Bus stop times have not changed.
Again, beginning on Monday April 12, WLA Buses will NOT go to the old LTD stop. DO NOT drop your Cadet at LTD.

Obstacle Course Renovation Begins
WLA has begun to dismantle the obstacle course and begin constructing new obstacles. The archery course and small track have been outlined. We are getting ready to fill in the large holes and level the field.
NEED: WLA needs clean fill dirt and sand. We welcome and heavy equipment and volunteer owners to operate. We are excited to have broken ground on the 3- year project that will produce the type of obstacle course cadets and their families have requested! Please contact Roberta Howard if you have dirt or sand and especially if you have equipment and wish to volunteer – rhoward@wlacademy.org or 602-622-2661.
Student Investment Account Info.
Since WLA is unable to have In Person Instruction, $19,000 in the Nutrition Program to be used for afternoon healthy snacks is being moved.
After gathering cadets, parents, staff and community input the funds of $19,000 are being moved from the Nutrition budget into: 1) $10,000 into technology due to the needs during COVID and 2) $9,000 into the Obstacle Course since more work could be done since cadets are not presently using the course. WLA had $3,842.33 of unbudgeted funds since we had to submit the SIA application before knowing the exact amount. WLA will place these funds into Professional Development.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach me @ rhoward@wlacademy.org
