SGHS Students Chosen for Missouri Girls and Missouri Boys State Programs

Each summer, a few of our Ste. Genevieve High School students are chosen to represent our district at Missouri Girls State and Missouri Boys State. These two programs offer a hands-on experience focusing on the fundamentals of government where students learn to develop their leadership skills through going through the motions of governmental processes. We want to congratulate the following students who were recognized because of their leadership skills, academics and character— we are incredibly proud of them and their achievements.
