USHLI, the nation's premier organization training 21st century leaders, is bringing its Student Leadership Series to over 1,000 high school students in El Paso on Friday, December 9. The event will be held at Eastlake High School.
 Jimmy Cabrera, one of the most dynamic motivational speakers in the nation, will be the keynote speaker at the opening session on Friday. He has addressed over 1.5 million students and is rated among the top three motivational speakers in the nation by MarketData Enterprises.
In addition to hearing a top motivational speaker, students will attend workshops on what they need to know about post-secondary education or training, nutrition and healthy living, leadership development, overcoming challenges to academic success, and financial aid/literacy. They will also have the opportunity to visit with recruiters representing vocational, technical, community college, and 4-year academic institutions in the immediate vicinity and branches of the military. Students will receive a CD containing a list of scholarships available to all students whether they are citizens, legal residents, or undocumented. This event will serve to ensure that high school students begin to envision and understand the process and requirements for pursuing the kind of post-secondary education of their choice.
