11 ILC at Yale: Greetings on a Train

About Us

We are a group of rising seniors representing the West Contra Costa Unified School District located in the San Francisco Bay Area. From July 24th through August 7th we will be participating in the rigorous Studies in Grand Strategies course as a part of Yale’s Ivy Scholars Program.

This intense course focuses on writing skills, advocacy, persuasion skills, and leadership. Only a selected group of high school students worldwide get the opportunity to learn from such a diverse and distinguished faculty as this program has to offer.

To quote from Yale’s designated website for this program: “This special academic and leadership development program is for extraordinarily capable individuals of strong character who know who they are, possess a strong desire to study strategy and leadership, and have a calling to someday serve at the very highest levels of government, business, public service, and education.”

Our group consists of three students: Tom Miller from El Cerrito High School, Matthew Lee from Pinole Valley High School, and Wing Tung (Dyana) So, also from Pinole Valley High.
