Citrus HS students at State Capital

Today, the Citrus County Superintendent Council Students from all three high schools had the unique opportunity to visit our State’s Capital during the legislative session. They spent time learning about the legislative process and meeting with state legislators, including our Florida House of Representative Ralph Massullo, M.D. and Florida Senator Blaise Ingoglia.

The students were thrilled to have the chance to meet with legislators and gain firsthand knowledge of the legislative process. During their visit, they were impressed by the level of knowledge and dedication displayed by the legislators. One of the students even remarked, “I didn’t know Senators were that cool.”

This valuable educational experience was made possible by the efforts of our school district educators who chaperoned the event, the Citrus County Education Foundation for sponsoring the trip, and Gene McGee of Sunrise Consulting Group for putting together such a special day.

The students’ visit to the State Capital was especially memorable when Representative Massullo recognized them during a committee meeting and referred to them and Citrus County as some of the best students and schools in Florida. This recognition was a testament to the hard work and dedication of both the students and their educators.

It is truly remarkable to see how this experience has inspired our students and given them a newfound appreciation for the legislative process. We hope that they continue to pursue their passions and become active citizens in our community.

We are incredibly proud of our students and grateful for the opportunities provided by our school district and community partners. This experience highlights the importance of providing unique educational experiences that inspire and motivate our students to become active and engaged citizens.
