SAGUACHE — Mountain Valley School District students are keeping up their activities even in the summer.

According to Mountain Valley School, “Even during the summer our students are up to great things. Incoming senior Keladrae is off for a week of American Legion Girl State at UNC Greeley 2022. This program is sponsored by the Saguache American Legion Woman's Auxiliary. Keladrae will learn more about the political process by electing officials for all levels of state government and actively running a mock government.”

The girls are assigned to mock cities and either the “Federalist Party” or “Nationalist Party.” Assistance from dedicated ALA volunteers ensures the program’s nonpartisan governmental, patriotic, and civic objectives are carried out through interactive learning.

“Though the week is filled with many learning opportunities, there is always time for fun and the formation of long-term friendships. Go Keladrae, we are so proud of you,” MVS officials stated.
