Pinecrest Academy Implements Leader in Me Program

Pinecrest Academy Space Coast is cultivating leadership skills in its K-8 students through the "Leader in Me" program. This initiative equips young learners with tools for confident and responsible lives, preparing them for engaged citizenship.

The program uses Stephen Covey's "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" as its foundation. Students engage in activities that enhance goal setting, communication, collaboration, problem-solving, and personal responsibility. The academy emphasizes that leadership starts with students recognizing their strengths and making positive choices.

Pinecrest Academy Space Coast, a tuition-free charter school, is accepting applications for the 2026-2027 academic year. The "Leader in Me" program is central to the school's philosophy, aiming to develop proactive, engaged citizens.

The school encourages each student to understand their potential and take ownership of their development, building a foundation for success inside and outside the classroom as they grow into leaders in Brevard County and beyond.
