Student Leadership Team Applications for the 2025-26 School Year

Student Leadership Team is an opportunity for FLY students to gain leadership experience, grow in their faith and help cultivate the culture of FLY in a unique way. The team meets a couple of times a month, helps plan events, reflects on what is happening, and give a voice to any changes that may need to happen.

Students who are going into 10th grade through 12th grade are welcome to apply. Fill out this application and turn into Deacon Kayla by April 30. Students will then have an interview with Deacon Kayla. The team for next year will be announced in late May / early June. If you have any questions, please contact Deacon Kayla.
