Twice a year my office organizes trips for Vermont students to visit the Edward Kennedy Institute in Boston. To date, nearly 500 students have participated in their innovative programming on the legislative process, acting as senators for the day in a full-scale replica of the U.S. Senate chamber. We are currently planning our spring “Vermont Day” at the Institute — if you are a Vermont teacher or student interested in participating, contact my office at 802-862-0697.
