Look out! Students drill Mount Vernon’s elected officials

March
14

Students from Columbus Elementary School in Mount Vernon will spend the morning today quizzing some of the city’s elected officials and community leaders as part of a role model series at the school.

Fifth-grade teacher Irene Boykin reached out to state Sen. Ruth Hassell-Thompson, Mayor Clinton
Young, school trustee Lynn McBride, city judge Samuel Walker and others and selected 12 students who will pepper them with questions.

The students will ask questions on how the community leaders are able to overcome challenges that come along with their jobs.
