GOVERNMENT ACTIVITY

On April 26, nine area students participated in an activity focusing on how government works in the United States, both at the federal and local levels.  We started out with a meeting at Congressman Mo Brooks' Huntsville office where we met with members of his staff.  Next we went to the office of the Mayor of the city of Huntsville to meet with a member of his staff.  At both offices, staff gave us an overview of their boss' job and answered a number of excellent questions posed by the students. Finally, we attended a Huntsville City Council meeting where the local CIEE students were recognized in an official resolution.

Each student received a certificate signed by the

Mayor and member of the City Council
