PGC-HS Peer Leader Application
The Peer Group Connection-High School (PGC-HS) program will train juniors and seniors on ways to help ninth grade students make a successful transition into high school. Throughout the year, peer leaders will work in pairs as group discussion leaders and positive role models for the 9th graders. During weekly sessions, peer leaders will lead discussions and activities with the same small group of 9th graders.

The application process includes this form as well as a group interview. Potential candidates should have good attendance, be on track for graduation, and be able to attend an overnight retreat during the summer. We will be selecting 16 - 20 qualified students to be peer leaders.
