Last week, eighth-grade students from R.W. Kershaw participated in our first Student Government Day.
Students rotated between presentations and hands-on experiences with the Mt. Ephraim Police Department, Mt. Ephraim Fire Department, and Mt. Ephraim Public Works Department, where they learned what it takes to run each department and how each serves the community. After lunch, staff from the Borough Hall explained their roles, the importance of a municipal budget, and the many services it funds. That evening, representatives from the Student Council participated in the monthly Commission meeting.
We are appreciative of Mr. Hunter and the Mt. Ephraim School District for partnering with us on this hands-on learning experience, which highlighted the importance of local government and municipal services. A big thank you to all of the staff who made this day possible and so meaningful for our future leaders!
