The Vote Is in for Both Boys'... Hoosier Boys' State was one of the best weeks in my life. stated Jim Jones, one of the three who went to Hoosier State. Jim, Mike Holified, and Chris Hagenow represented LaPorte High School at the week long seminar held each year in June at Indiana State University. Boys' State is set forth to teach high school seniors about how our government works. The students learn about electing officials at ci- ty, county, and state levels. Once they have learned the election process, the students hold mock elections. Jim was elected both State Senator and City Judge. Chris was elected State Senator and Mike was the Mayor of Donovan. According to Jim, Boys' State was truly a week to shape a lifetime. ... and Girls' State Hoosier Girls' State, held every year in June one week after Boys' State, effected the lives of three students of LaPorte High School. Tammy Stump, Jane Plant , and Sarah Mawhorr spent a week at Indiana State University to learn about how our government works. As in Boys' State, the group of 900 girls were divided into cities and learned about how elections are held. Tammy Stump was elected as City Vice-Chairman and a page for her party's convention, Sarah was an alternate for Hoosier Girls' Nation. Jane was elected as County Commissioner. Lastly, Jane Plant , stated, With all that each of us learned about our state, one couldn't help but leave with a sense of pride toward the State of Indiana and with a better understanding of the government procedures.
