“The American Legion Boys State and American Legion Auxiliary Girl’s State are premier programs for teaching how government works while developing leadership skills & an appreciation for your rights as a citizen. As a participant in the program you, will run for office, learn public speaking, create and enforce laws and actively participate in all phases of creating and running a working government in this exciting and fun summer program”.

During this week long program, Daniel and Jeanette will have the opportunity to meet and develop lifelong friendships with other public service enthusiast and driven young leaders from all across the state, that will help to shape the future of our communities for years to come.

Daniel is a bright 11^th grade student from Puerto Rico, who has exemplified exceptional people skills making leadership a natural fit.  Daniel’s father serves as an analyst for the United Nations.  The Boy’s State will be held at Tennessee Tech University beginning May 23^rd.

Jeanette is also an exceptional junior at Blackman, holding an impressive 4.0 grade average.  She has proven to be very intuitive in group situations making her a great leader.  Girl’s State will be held this year at Lipscomb University also beginning May 23^rd.
