Badger Boys State Program/Badger Girls State Program:
This program helps prepare high school juniors to become leaders of tomorrow and is a great academic experience and resume builder. It is a week-long program that offers approximately 900 high school juniors to experience a different form of citizenry and leadership then what they’ve experience previously. The program allows students to create their own state government and explore topics from the importance of local community decisions to the role of the state congress and the governor’s cabinet, all through an immersive, hands-on experience. Through this simulation, they develop a sense of individual obligation to the community, state, and nation. In addition, they participate in a series of instructional classes that build skills such as public speaking or assist them in learning more about specific careers, like law enforcement and legal careers. If you are interested, please see Ms. Brittanie.
