U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan Honors
On June 5th at The LEAGUE National Awards & Recognition Breakfast, U.S. Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, presented the inaugural All America High School Service Team Award to five high school students from across the country who made nationally significant contributions of service. High School students submitted applications to be considered for the All America High School Service Team in any of five categories: Health, Education, Environment, Economics, and Community. Winners were determined in a two tier judging process represented by a cross section of blue ribbon panel of judges. 1st Tier winners received the trip to NYC to attend The LEAGUE Awards & Recognition Breakfast and receive their award from Secretary Duncan. Additionally these five amazing young people along with the 2nd Team and 3rd Team recipients will become national youth spokesperson for service and a member of The LEAGUE National Youth Commission. We can’t wait to see the impact that they will continue to make. Congratulations to the following winners: 1st Team (pictured)
