🐝 STUDENT LEADERSHIP

Developing Christlike Leaders for Life

At Big House Christian Academy, we believe leadership is not a position — it is character in action.
Our goal is to raise students who lead with humility, courage, integrity, and a heart for Christ.

BHCA offers intentional opportunities for students to grow as leaders in age-appropriate, meaningful ways.
Whether through chapel, Life Groups, service, or daily responsibilities, students learn to influence others for God’s glory.

⭐ Life Group Leaders 

Our trained Life Group Leaders shepherd small groups of students after chapel each week.
This is one of the most important discipleship roles at BHCA.

Life Group Leaders learn to:

• facilitate meaningful discussion

• apply Scripture to real-life issues

• pray with and for others

• support younger students

• create a welcoming, respectful atmosphere

• model Christlike character
  
  

These students set the spiritual tone for the school.

⭐ TeenPact Leadership School

Training the Next Generation of Christian Leaders

As part of our commitment to developing confident, Christ-centered leaders, BHCA participates in TeenPact Leadership School, a nationally respected Christian program that teaches students about government, leadership, and biblical citizenship.

TeenPact gives students hands-on opportunities to:

• learn how government works

• participate in mock elections and legislative sessions

• speak publicly with confidence

• debate respectfully

• write bills and defend ideas

• meet leaders and elected officials

• grow in personal discipline and spiritual maturity
  
  

TeenPact combines:

• leadership training

• discipleship

• civic education

• hands-on learning

• Christian worldview teaching
  
  

It is one of the most transformative leadership experiences BHCA students participate in each year.

⭐ Chapel Leadership

Students help lead various aspects of chapel, including:

• prayer

• Scripture reading

• worship team 

• hosting or welcoming

• helping with setup and support
  
  

Chapel leadership encourages students to use their gifts to serve the Lord publicly and confidently.

⭐ Service & Outreach Leadership

Students lead through acts of service, including:

• organizing donations

• volunteering at school events

• helping younger grades

• serving during field trips and outreach activities

• leading by example in attitude and behavior
  
  

BHCA emphasizes that leadership begins with servanthood.

⭐ Athletic Leadership

Sports provide natural leadership growth for student-athletes.

Athletes learn:

• teamwork

• perseverance

• self-discipline

• conflict resolution

• positive communication

• sportsmanship

• representing Christ on and off the field
  
  

Captains and team leaders also learn to encourage teammates and set a positive tone.

⭐ Academic Leadership

Students demonstrate leadership academically when they:

• take initiative

• demonstrate strong work habits

• help peers with assignments

• model respect and responsibility

• complete their work with excellence

• mentor younger students in reading or math groups
  
  

These leadership qualities help shape lifelong learners.

⭐ Leadership Through Character

At BHCA, the most important leadership lessons are found in:

• doing what is right

• telling the truth

• showing kindness

• taking responsibility

• demonstrating humility

• having courage

• seeking peace

• honoring teachers
  
  

Character is the foundation of all leadership.

⭐ Our Leadership Philosophy

— Matthew 20:26

Leadership at BHCA is Christ-centered.
We teach students to:

• lead by serving

• lead by example

• lead with grace and truth

• lead with humility

• lead with love
  
  

Our prayer is that every BHCA student becomes a leader who reflects Christ in every area of life.
