Rachel Green, a junior at Lexington High School, will attend Presidential Classroom’s Presidential Inaugural Program January 15 –21, 2005 in Washington, D.C. Presidential Classroom (PC), 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 interact with Washington insiders, including Members of Congress, presidential appointees, senior military officials, top business leaders and journalists. Students participate in the 55th Inauguration of the President of the United States of America, which focuses on the Presidency and involves a post-election analysis and Mock Presidential Election. Additional program highlights include participation in Pre-Inaugural events, such as the Inaugural Parade, PC Student Inaugural Ball, and attendance at the Presidential Oath of Office.
Former Congressman Jack Beuchner, CEO and President of PC said, “Our students meet and question the people who make and shape our nation’s policies. No other program melds leadership, academics and current events in such an appealing combination. Our students return home with a new perspective on American politics and the world.”
Aimed at outstanding high school juniors and seniors with a minimum 3.0 grade point average, Presidential Classroom offers unique leadership experiences, focusing on business, media, science and technology, law, national security, and international relations.
Rachel is the daughter of Joe and Keri Green of Lexington
