Honorary Secretary of State Students from James Monroe High School, Sadie Maxey & Cole Thomas were recognized Friday, February 23rd at the West Virginia State Capitol.
These students worked with Lee Dean, teacher Stormy Thorne, County Clerk Jeremy Meadows, and staff to register 100% of their Senior Class to vote. They have qualified to win the Jennings Randolph Award from the West Virginia Secretary of State's Office again. They brought their families and upcoming seniors with them to the WV State Capitol to watch them be recognized by the WV Legislature for their achievement.
That's an award we give to High Schools in honor of the late U.S. Senator Jennings Randolph of WV who fought 29 years to get the voting age lowered from 21 to 18 in response to the draft age being lowered from 21 to 18 during WW2 with the motto "Old enough for bullets, old enough for ballots!" Our awesome Director of Communications Michael Queen enjoyed meeting with the students and celebrating their hard work!
And a special "thank you" to members of the Legislature like Delegate Roy Cooper, Delegate Todd Longanacre, Senator Jack David Woodrum, & Senator Vince Deeds, for giving these students encouragement and support.
Mrs. Ballard’s PreK class rocked out Dr. Seuss week with funky socks, hats, whacky wear, and some green!
