Girls State is a nonpartisan program offered annually to more than 575 of Tennessee’s rising high school seniors and is centered on citizenship, teamwork, and fostering a love of God and country.

The cost for this year’s session is $100 per student. For more information, visit the Girls State website at alavgs.org. If you are a rising senior interested in being considered for Girls State, stop by and see Ms. Campbell in the Counseling Office by the end of the day on Thursday, March 11th. (3/9-3/15) – B.
