Interested in being a peer leader?
Peer Leadership is a program/course designed to help students grow into lifelong servant leaders. Through hands on participation throughout the community in service projects and by developing their own projects, students learn about their leadership style while building their resumes with community involvement. To be in this group a student must want to help others, be active participants, want to have fun, and have a positive attitude. Peer Leadership also partners with the Chick-fil-A Leader Academy program.
