Youth and Government
Interested in debate? Current events? Improving your leadership or communication skills? Youth and Government is a state-wide program focused on developing tomorrow's leaders and promoting active citizenship. In this competitive club, students take on the roles of legislators, attorneys, executive officials, lobbyists, press members and more. Youth and Government culminates in a three-day event where students literally take over the state capitol -- debating bills, arguing and judging cases, and reporting the news of the day.
