Juniors Ansley Simmons, Emma Obermaier, and Susanna Harrell were selected to represent the local chapter of Rotary at this year’s RYLA Conference in February. They traveled to Huntsville and spent the weekend participating in courses that build leadership skills.Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) is a leadership program coordinated by Rotary Clubs around the globe. Each year, thousands of young people participate in this program. Young people ages 13–30 are sponsored by their local club to attend the event. Participants are chosen for their leadership potential. Students apply for the program and local Rotary Clubs and the Rotary District cover all expenses for the chosen participants.
