Through the Presidential Classroom program, Copper Canyon Academy girls spend one week learning leadership skills, meeting students from other countries and getting a behind-the-scenes look at how the federal government works. They also participate in role-playing exercises (sometimes acting as ambassadors of other countries) and write proposals that are presented at simulated world summit meetings. The Presidential Classroom program is offered to high schools throughout the world and has been around for about 40 years, but Copper Canyon is one of the few therapeutic schools that participates in the program.
