Leadership & Service

This is where students RISE—learning goes beyond the classroom—shaping confident, capable young people who are prepared for college, career, and life through strong academics, character, and community.

Chick-fil-A Leader Academy

PACT Charter School is proud to partner with the Chick-fil-A Leader Academy™, a prestigious national high school leadership program that empowers students to make an Impact Through Action.

Through a year-long curriculum, students develop timeless leadership skills, including teamwork, communication, and innovation. Each month, students participate in Leader Labs—interactive sessions filled with games, activities, discussions, and challenges that equip them with the tools needed to become effective leaders.

The program culminates with an Impact Project, where students put their leadership into action by planning and executing a service project that benefits the local community. Students don’t just learn about leadership in the classroom—they live it out by serving others and making a difference.

Secondary Student Council

Student Council consists of students who work together to plan school-wide events and offer volunteer opportunities. We aim to build community and school spirit by creating shared memories of your time at PACT. We do this through events like pep rallies and school dances, running the school store, and participating in Advisory competitions.

Beyond that, and most of all, the Student Council is an opportunity for ALL students to develop leadership. Just like our PACT character traits, leadership is a skill that must be developed on purpose. Student Council is the perfect place to learn how to be a leader, see leadership in action, and apply it in your own life!
