Capstone Projects, sponsored by Williams Mullen

The ALL Stars program challenges high school students to lead with purpose—and their capstone projects are proof that they rise to the occasion. Each project is designed and carried out by the students themselves, reflecting their unique interests and a shared commitment to building a more active, healthy, and vibrant region. From improving school blacktops to promoting bike safety and active living, these initiatives make a lasting impact in our community.
