Central High School junior Jessica Miller has been selected to participate in the 2024 Georgia Girls State session this June. The Georgia session is part of the National American Legion Auxiliary. The girls participate in a course of instruction as well as a practical application of the fundamental principles and procedures of city, county, and state government under the American system.
Under the guidance of skilled counselors and other staff members who are leading citizens, these girls learn and then practice through self-government, the duties, responsibilities, and privileges of American citizenship. Georgia Girls State is sponsored, as it has been since 1945, by the American Legion Auxiliary, Department of Georgia with local Auxiliary units and interested civic, fraternal, and patriotic organizations cooperating.
The objectives of the Georgia Girls State are to develop leadership and pride in American citizens, to educate citizens about our system of government, to instill a greater understanding of American traditions, and to stimulate a desire to maintain our democratic government process.
