Civic Leadership cohort introduced to county commissioners

The Granville County Board of Commissioners meeting July 1 featured the introduction of the 2024 Summer Civic Leadership cohort consisting of five rising high school seniors.

The Summer Civic Leadership program provides high school students who reside in Granville County the opportunity to gain experience working in an office environment while also learning about government operations and the role that Granville County government plays in the community.

To prepare participants for professional life, all applicants to the program participate in a competitive selection process that includes a formal interview with a panel of county employees.

This year’s cohort includes Destani Harris, Granville Central High School; Madison Martinez-Molina, South Granville High School; Jazmin Santiago-Barrera, Granville Early College High School; Leah Scott, Henderson Collegiate High School; and Praley Williams, Granville Early College High School.

In addition to working in various county departments, students will complete a final project and present the results to the board of commissioners during an upcoming meeting.
