Peer leaders are mentors who assist others in making good decisions and helping the 5th grade transition to middle school. The 7th and 8th grade Peer Leaders mentor the 5th grade students, but are also considered to be influencers of the building as role models, and within the greater CG community. As a Peer Leader, the students take experiences (including but not limited to correcting their own past mistakes), skills and training from LMTI, to successfully guide other students.

The Peer Leader Program is open for interested 7th and 8th grade students. Students interested must apply by 9/23/24 by 2:50 PM. There is an interest meeting during 7th and 8th grade lunch periods on 9/16/24. Students applying must have A's and B's as their final grades for the prior school year, and maintain the A or B average for the current school year. Applicants cannot have disciplinary infractions from the prior school year. Whilst a Peer Leader, they must follow the school rules from their Panther Pad, and sign a contract with their parent/guardian signifying that they understand the responsibilities. If at any time one of these qualifications/requirements are no longer fulfilled, their membership will be suspended/terminated depending on the severity of the situation.
