During this visit, diplomas were handed out to new graduates.
The visit also included a session with the Millstadt 6th Grade Class, which features the son of the visiting State Representative. Discussions covered the history of Millstadt and insights into the role of a State Representative in the General Assembly.
Additionally, there was an opportunity to speak with the 8th grade civics class in Millstadt about legislative processes such as how a bill becomes law and filing witness slips. The importance of protecting the constitution was emphasized, along with encouraging students to engage more in community service.
