ETS Students Attend
Leadership Conference
Educational Talent Search sent two Students to the 26 th Annual Student Leadership Congress in Washington D.C. Samuel Rinehart
from South Pemiscot High School and James Laythan Fox from
Rivercrest High School attended the 26th Annual Student Leadership
Congress in Washington D.C. on June 6 – 11th. Both of these young
men are TRiO Educational Talent Search 11th grade students.
The National Student Leadership Congress was hosted at Georgetown University. In an effort to highlight the broad range of opportunities that are available to TRIO students, this year they placed a
special focus on connecting Student Leadership delegates to TRIO
alumni who are doing great things in DC as participants in Congress. These young men were introduced to a panel, featuring
Samuel Rinehart and James Lathan Fox
offices, which shared how their experiences in TRIO programs prepared them for their professional experiences on Capitol Hill. Some of the inspiring individuals that Sam and Laythan interacted with during the
week included: Political Engagement Expert Mike Muse, Missouri’s state Senator Roy Blunt, and our Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor. They also traveled to historical sites, such as: the Lincoln Memorial
and the Holocaust Museum. At the beginning of the conference, the students were divided into a Mock Congress, groups of 12-14 students and all students were from different states. Each group was given a bill to
research and ultimately convince the other 156 students to vote for their particular bill by the end of the week.
We are proud to announce that Laythan Fox was a member of the wining group in receiving medals at the
closing ceremony.
Overall, this was an exciting experience for both ETS participants. Sam shares his experience by stating, “The
time spent with peers with the same like mindedness and enthusiasm as myself was amazing. I now have a
better understanding of what it really takes to be a leader and write legislation. Overall this experience is one
in a lifetime, and I am truly proud to be able to say that I was the one chosen to attend.” Laythan also shares
the following: “During the National Student Leadership Conference, I learned that we come together to represent the country because we are the people that matter. We are the future and make up the Trio Alumni system and we are the students that encourage the government to continue to aid the Trio program.” Needless to
say, both students truly enjoyed and cherished their experience at the 26 th Annual Student Leadership Congress in Washington D.C.
Educational Talent Search is a grant program funded by the United States Department of Education at Arkansas Northeastern College with the primary purpose of encouraging students to complete a rigorous high
school curriculum, enroll in a postsecondary institution, and earn a postsecondary degree.
