Testimonials Civic and Student Leadership
This year, at our Leadership Center, we created a new "Senior Scholarship" that the students voted to fund through the Student Government Treasury. Student Government and international trips are just two ways we create a context for personal and civic leadership. The stories below are speeches, written by our Senators and the 2008-09 President of the Student Government Organization You can also scroll down to watch video interviews of the global citizens who traveled to Panama to complete a mission of language Immersion and service learning.
	Andrew Hoffmann Over the past two years, I have been actively involved with the PALCS Student Government. I have been President for both years and have worked hard with other Senators and Officers to accomplish many goals. Over the course of two years, I have helped my school, my community, and myself. When I was working within Student Government, I never thought I was helping anyone other than my school. I never thought about how my work affected the community or myself. Now that I take some time to reflect on it, I realize that my work impacted others more than I knew. Click HERE to read more.

	Joshua Barber Long ago, back when I was in 8th grade, I was a first year student like everyone else here at PA Leadership Charter School. I remember hearing about an extra curricular activity called Student Government (SG). At first I wasn’t quite sure what to think of this activity, all I know is I only managed to vote the first year. When I got in 9th grade, I started challenging myself to get more involved in things, so eventually I ended up attending some SG committee meetings. Slowly I became more involved and finally in 10th grade I decided that it was time for me to make a difference in the school. Click HERE to read more.

	Tyler Dunn When I came to PA Leadership I viewed school as something I was required to do. A lot of changes were taking place in my life; not the smallest of which being changing schools. I was frightened and beyond apprehensive about what was to come. I had never heard of a cyber school before my mother’s decision to enroll me in the Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School. The first day of my attendance to PA Leadership was full of mixed emotions. I found myself actually missing my former school and the people that had surrounded me there. I didn’t believe I had made the right choice to go along with this decision. The work was educational enough, but I was still skeptical. Click HERE to read more.

	Chloe Cartmell There are so many things that can be done to better the community, school and yourself. I know that there aren’t things that I’ve done that are too big to make a huge different. Though I know that little things can make little differences and little differences build up big differences. With everyone working together, big differences can be accomplished and dreams can be fulfilled. I do what I can as anyone else would want to do to better my community, school and myself.

Global Citizens At the end of our stay in Panama this year we took the time to interview five of our students. I hope you enjoy these five interviews which took place next to a pool on a roof top in Panama City. Click on the student's name or picture to open their video interview.
