Neillsville student Nolan John was selected to be one of 33 students in the state of WI to participate in the Senate Scholars Program.

Nolan is participating in this program virtually for two weeks, ending tomorrow.  The Senate Scholar Program is an elite program designed to challenge Wisconsin’s best students.

One student from each of the 33 Senate Districts may participate in the week-long program, which is being held virtually this year.  The Senate Scholar Program has created an advanced government curriculum that includes classroom instruction, roundtable discussion sections, and a lab component.

The first part of the week the Scholars spend several days in a classroom setting.  Experts teach Scholars about constituent relations, research and development of legislation, and bill drafting.

Scholars engage in roundtable discussions with legislative support agency directors and staff, media, and lobbyists throughout the week resulting in further insight into all facets of the legislative process.

Scholars have virtually attended the legislative session and witnessed the Senate debate on legislation.  Scholars will also draft their own bills and amendments, form their own mock committee, and elect committee leadership."
