Teresa Ruth Plonk of Kings
~ Mountain High School par-
ticipated recently in A Presiden-
tial Classroom for Young
Americans in Washington, D.C.
The classroom had 411
outstanding high school students
from all 50 states plus schools
overseas represented in the Na-
* tional Student Body. Presidential
Classroom is an educational pro-
gram for juniors and seniors in
high school which introduces
student leaders to the people
who make and influence the
policies of the federal govern-
ment. The Classroom presents
an overview of “Power in
Washington’’ through the
students meeting with decision
makers from the three branches
of government, the diplomatic
community, the news media and
the business and labor sectors.
The students met with many
policy makers, including Elliott
Richardson, Senior Partner,
Milbank, Tweed, Hadley and
McCloy; Senator Nancy
TERRI PLONK
Kassebaum (R-Kansas), Harry
Hurwitz, Minister of Informa-
tion, Embassy of Israel;
Representative Jack Kemp
(R-New York); Richard Cohen,
Columnist for the Washington
Post’ the Honorable Angela
Buchanan, Treasurer of the
United States; North Carolina
Senators Jesse Helms and John
East; and Anne Compton of
ABC News.
‘The Classroom was chartered
in 1968 at the recommendation
of President Lyndon B. Johnson.
The program promotes citizen
responsibility and civic
awareness through a forum for
independent thought. Since the
program receives no government
funding, students depend on rais-
ing their tuition from local civic
groups and their schools.
Students are selected by their
schools to attend Classroom.
In addition to the program for
high school students, the
Classroom offers a program for
college students and profes-
sionals called the Federal.
Forum.
