February 17, 2023 — Congratulations to the following Chardon High School Class of 2024 Hilltoppers on their selection as Buckeye State Program 2023 delegates — Julia Ellington, Rebecca Fullerman, Lia Gutierrez, Jen Kogovsek, Grace Romanoff, Joseph Grano, and Madison Primc (alternate)!
The Chardon delegates will travel June 11-17 to Bowling Green State University (girls) and Miami University - Oxford (boys) to collaborate with incoming seniors from other schools. Delegates will learn about duties, privileges, rights, and responsibilities of good citizenship, ultimately conducting a state and local government simulation.
Each year, faculty nominate juniors for this prestigious opportunity based on students’ interest in government and current events; demonstration of high moral character and strong leadership skills; above-average scholastic standing; and thirst for knowledge. The nominees are then interviewed as the final step to determine acceptance into the program.
Thank you to Chardon American Legion Post 167 for its unwavering generosity in sponsoring our students each year, a long-standing history of Buckeye State Program sponsorship that allows Chardon students to attend the program at no cost to their families!
