Boys State Logo

WGHS senior Brady Barrett was selected to attend the American Legion Boys States this past June at Morrisville College.

American Legion Boys’ State is a week-long program that immerses high school youth (currently completing their junior year) in citizenship and leadership training. They learn the practical aspects of government as it exists in New York State, and come to recognize that the individual is integral to the character and success of government. They also participate in physical fitness, team work and other activities under the guidance of American Legion counselors and U.S. Marines.

During the conference he was selected as the Samsung American Legion National Finalist out of New York. Congratulations!
