Mississippi American Legion Boys State is the premiere leadership program for rising high school seniors in Mississippi. Delegates are challenged to not just learn about government, leadership and service; but to put their knowledge into practice. Along the way, delegates will hear from elected state leaders, prepare for college and make friendships that will last a lifetime.
Delegates from Natchez High School that will be attending this year's MS Boy's State include Adrian Marshall, Christen Reynolds and Antwaine Liddell. The program will be housed at The University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) from May 29th - to June 4th.
Mrs. Myles stated, "When Antwaine told me that he had been accepted to participate, I was elated! I am super proud of these young men. They never turn away from a life changing opportunity."
We have to say thank you to Mr. Steve Neilsen from the American Legion, Natchez Post #4 for sponsoring these students to participate. We truly appreciate the members for all that they have done to support Natchez High School students.
