  • Energeia for Teens

    In line with the Molloy University mission of providing transformative education, Energeia for Teens was modeled after its adult leadership academy and launched in 2009. Molloy cares deeply about the development of ethical leadership and believes in the role and power of young adults in making a difference throughout Long Island communities. Energeia is a Greek word used by Aristotle to describe the demonstration of inner character in deeds. It is goodness plus efficiency; it is focused, purposeful, meaningful, effective, and energetic action.

  • Molloy University Rising Stars

    The Rising Star Summer Camp is a community-based collaboration between local school districts, the Nassau County District Attorney's Office and Molloy University. The program has been in existence since 1998 and enjoys an excellent reputation amongst the participating school districts, parents and Molloy University students.

    The program offers Molloy University students an opportunity to work directly with N.Y.S. Certified Teachers and the participating children. University students are assigned to designated children and spend the summer as a mentor, coach, and teacher in areas of academics, creative arts, sports and off-campus trips.
