Alli Temple
HALEYVILLE - As a junior at Haleyville High School, Alli Temple was named to the Alabama High School Athletic Association’s Student Leadership program. Sixteen juniors were selected state-wide for this honor. The program gathers input from the student-athletes. The student leaders from each of the eight districts meet for a two-day conference.
Sponsored through the AHSAA and supported by sponsor Alabama Power, 2019 marks the fourth year for the selection of two students from the group to attend the National Youth Leadership conference in Indianapolis, Indiana during the summer. Also, 8 to 12 of the 32 will be selected to be a part of the AHSAA Student-Athlete Advisory Committee that will meet once a year to discuss issues from the student-athlete prospective.
These athletes may also serve as student-athlete ambassadors at various events throughout the year.
