Every year at least 9 Tenth and Eleventh grade
Peer Leaders are selected to train every winter at LCCTC to become train Peer
Leadership members. On Monday, January 11th, 2016, 8 students were selected by
Mr. Blank and the Peer Leadership council based on their quality to be great
role models to their fellow peers and their potential to be great leaders.,
Current Peer Leader members Kayla Baker (Cosmo)
and Makaila Holsinger (HA) over saw the training. The selected 8 students were
Matthew Hawkins, Camryn Moses, Nathaniel Bartley, Rebekah Shoaf, Krista
Berkley, Sarah Bollinger, and Trystan Gravatt.
Peer leadership was founded in 1995 by Dan
Barnes, Director of Lawrence County Human Services Center's "Students
Assistance Program" and Mike Egbert of Lawrence County's "Drug and
Alcohol Community Treatment Services.” Since the very beginning, Peer
Leadership members have given their time to volunteer and raise money for
causes close to their heart. They also
serve as the “go-to” group to assist with guests and dignitaries and conducting
recruiting tours.
