LEADERSHIP PACE
GORDON CORSETTI ’06, who moonlights as an official for Atlanta Youth Lacrosse, served as a referee during a March lacrosse game in which Pace faced North Atlanta. The Knights emerged victorious, defeating the Warriors 14–3. When he’s not on the field, Gordon works for Atlanta-based Volt Power.
PARTICIPANTS REUNITE On Feb. 18, graduates of the Leadership Pace program gathered virtually for the first-ever Leadership Pace reunion. The program, launched in 2016, is designed to foster the next generation of school leadership and facilitate deep alumni engagement with the school, the community and fellow alumni. To date, 74 alumni have participated in Leadership Pace. As Leadership Pace strives to offer participants an insider look at school operations, purposeful interactions with school leaders and a voice as to the school’s direction, the virtual program featured presentations by Isdell Center for Global Leadership Director TRISH ANDERSON, Chief Equity and Inclusion Officer JOANNE BROWN and Head of Upper School MIKE GANNON.
