North Daviess High School student attends Presidential Classroom Scholars Program in D.C.

Crystal D. Cook, a student at North Daviess High School, attended the Presidential Classroom (PC) Scholars Program March 6-13 in Washington, D.C. Presidential Classroom, the leader in civic education, provides the best and brightest high school juniors and seniors unprecedented access to the leaders who shape America’s public policy.

During the week-long program, PC Scholars interacted with Washington insiders, including members of Congress, presidential appointees, senior military officials, top business leaders and journalists. Students observed the U.S. Congress in action, visited their congressional offices and debated current issues with peers from the United States and abroad. They also visited the renowned sites of our nation’s capital such as the White House (by special invitation), the U.S. Department of State and Arlington National Cemetery. Additional program highlights included a Central Intelligence Agency briefing, a mock presidential election and foreign embassy visits.
