Middle - High School

Thank you for visiting the Middle School - High School page. In the 1960s, President Kennedy urged us to ask not what our country can do for us, but what we can do for our country. Those powerful words changed me when I heard them and President Kennedy's eloquent message remains potent and profound, and I hope still can transform the lives of young people today. I encourage all young people to answer the call to public service.

Here are some of my favorite online resources for learning more about how our nation's government works, and will help you take the first steps towards helping to shape a better government, and, in the process, a better nation.
