Post 6, along with Roxanne Jones Cdr, and Desirae Schmidt 1st Vice Cdr of Post 451 the Woman's Post, had the pleasure of welcoming back the participants of this year’s American Legion Boys & Girls State.
Valhalla high Schools Giana Tawasha (who's brother we selected last year coincidentally), and Hadasa Nzioki representing Post 451, along with Nicholas Sanchez, and Victor Castan of St Augustine High School were in attendance. Unfortunately, our Delegates from Coronado High, or Scripps Ranch High Schools were not able to attend.
American Legion Boys & Girls State was established in 1935, as an annual program that local Posts send delegates from participating High Schools throughout California to the state capitol for a week. Typically one delegate is selected per high school
These students are highest achieving, well spoken future lawyers, politicians, armed service members.
Usually the captains of their soccer, lacrosse, or track teams. Many Scouts, christian leaders, and community activists, with the highest GPAs.
We are so proud of our high achieving Delegates, and our Boys and Girls State program.
