(Preparing Individuals for Leadership Opportunities To Succeed)
PILOTS stands for Preparing Individuals for Leadership Opportunities To Succeed.
Red, blue and yellow are the chosen colors to represent the PILOTS program.
Red represents courage/bravery.
Blue represents honor/integrity.
Yellow represents friendship.
The PILOTS shirt is a visual representation of our program and its members. By wearing the PILOTS t-shirt each Wednesday, we show the school community who we are as we enter classrooms and assist throughout the building. Many of the Sonoran Sky staff show their support by wearing a PILOTS t-shirt.
There are three committees under the umbrella of PILOTS. SWAT (SchoolWide Assistance Team) assists staff and teachers. Some examples of the impact this committee has on our community would be: completing tasks such as sharpening pencils, hanging or taking down bulletin boards, filing papers, etc.) Peer Coaches prepare younger students in basic writing, math and reading concepts as well as teach character lessons to younger classes. Community Outreach makes our school community a better place to live. Some of the examples of the impact this committee has on our community would be: maintaining a school wide recycling effort, holding a semesterly drive to raise awareness and goods for groups less fortunate, serving as docents for school tours, organizing and participating in events sponsored by our PTO.
Each student takes a skills and interests survey which helps to place them in the appropriate committee for their interests and talents. In order to successfully complete the program, students must fulfill their responsibilities as a committee member by participating most PILOTS days (75%) on campus throughout the school year.
