Friday, August 10, 2012 / Categories: Press Releases Saint Thomas Aquinas Seniors Attend Boys’ State and Girls’ State Seven STA seniors were selected to attend Boys’ State and Girls’ State this past summer at Northwestern University in Natchitoches. Each summer, high school student leaders from across Louisiana spend a week developing a greater understanding of leadership, citizenship, and democracy. Students got the chance to plan their own cities, elect their own leaders, and create and enforce their own laws. Thanks to the Ponchatoula American Legion and Auxiliary, Lee’s Drive In, and Barry W. Smith, CPA for sponsoring STA’s students.
